So, in our middle class families or I think almost every father, he is very, he is very, he don’t show, I think usually fathers they don’t show his emotions. So, he kept them to himself only. He don’t describe or show his love unlike our mothers. So, I think that is sometimes quite obnoxious because men are brought up like this only. They are not allowed to show his emotions.

Well, I think that taking pictures is a must because one can relish the moment, and it really brings back the memories. We can cherish them forever, and we are reminded of the beautiful or important events that are close to our hearts just by looking at the pictures. So, one such photo that is really close to my heart and is worth mentioning is from my birthday party, where my sister clicked a picture of me and my father. He was hugging me. In our middle-class families, or I think almost every father, he is very reserved; he doesn't usually show his emotions. Fathers tend to keep their feelings to themselves. They don't express or show their love like our mothers do. I think that is sometimes quite unfortunate because men are brought up this way. They are not allowed to show their emotions. So, my sister clicked that picture, and he was hugging me. That was the first time my father hugged me, and this picture means a lot to me. It is more than just a picture; it is a memory that is etched in my heart forever. I framed this picture, and it is hung on the wall of my room. I usually see it almost every day. Moreover, I made this picture the wallpaper on my phone too. So, whenever I am feeling low, I just look at it, and I feel really excited.
