“I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments, when they aren’t trying to teach us. We are formed by little scraps of wisdom”
– Umberto Eco, Foucault’s Pendulum
Fathers have a great impact on our lives, and through the little, everyday things that they do for us, we see glimpses of their affection and love. They are our role models, heroes, and so much more. In celebration of Fathers’ Day, we’ve found some of the most heartwarming Instagram pictures of our very own Singaporean dads: be warned, overwhelming sweetness and affection ahead.
