🔥 Daily Spark: Why My Dad Made Me Feel Worthy Every Day



Today’s spark is for you, Dad.

You were a quiet giant — a World War II and Korean War veteran — who never bragged, never boasted. But your presence? It filled every room. And the words you gave us? They filled our hearts.

“You are as good as the best — and better than the rest.”

You said it like it was gospel. Over and over. Until it lived in our bones. Until we believed it. That wasn’t just a line — it was a lifeline. You gave your children armor. Confidence. Self-worth. Not by shielding us from life, but by teaching us how to stand tall in it.

You didn’t talk about courage — you lived it.You didn’t demand greatness — you spoke it into us.You didn’t just raise kids — you raised warriors of character.

On this Memorial Day, while the world honors fallen heroes, I want to honor my hero. The man who made sure his children were mentally bulletproof. Thank you, Dad.

We are proud of the uniform you wore. And we are forever shaped by the love you gave.
