Father’s day
There are no significant epithets, but rather a virtuality that is updated every day and that seeks to understand the growing crossroads of today’s world.
Social decomposition, a product of social, economic or political factors, brings with it the social erosion on which a free and responsible society is based. As Thomas Hobbes, Noam Chomsky, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Johan Fichte would say in their various understandings of language, the limitation of understanding limits social action and the term father.
The idea of father and his participation in social development has been investigated by genetic and xenogeneic science, Physical Anthropology, Paleontology, Stratigraphy, Geochronology, Archeology and Linguistics. The characteristics of bipedalism, opposable thumb, Wernicke, Broca and Brodmann area for a complex brain process, the cultural trait and symbolic representation are typical of very complex systems of adaptation to a world totally separated from the rest of the species.
None of these aspects is considered in festivities that have a religious origin such as the birth of Saint Joseph, the father of Jesus the Christ, (March 19); political aspects such as February 23 in Russia, commemorating the defenders of the homeland; the third Sunday of June and Guatemala and El Salvador, on June 17, in the nature of raising and training children in the social aspect.
Father’s Day is, in Guatemala, a sign of that which allows us to continue existing in the midst of the vulnerability of life.
Unlike other celebrations whose constitutional attachment has social nuances, fallacies about mercy, mercy and clemency for abuses in Guatemala, it has a unique character and does not constitute permission or influence from the State. It constitutes a veracity of courage, energy and strength against the adversity faced in this extremely extreme process of civilization. It is contrasting to remember the Spanish geologist Salvador Ordóñez, born on June 17, whose contribution has been the rational use of natural resources.
It is also time to remember the invaluable work of Francisco Pérez de Antón, particularly Hombre Adentro, where he is able to interpret the meaning of that celebration. I join the memories of that vital impulse of all men to adapt to the environment through creativity, intuition and freedom of choice. There is nothing external and objective about the task of being a parent. There are no significant epithets, but rather a virtuality that is updated every day and that seeks to understand the growing crossroads of today’s world.
The inexhaustible force in which things flow means that this world is not identified with the sex of the person or with the fact of engendering, but in the sense of a humanity lived through the events that allow that freedom to conquer reality. that is uniquely ours.
Father’s Day is not a commemoration, it is not a family celebration or a social event. It is, in Guatemala, a sign of that which allows us to continue existing in the midst of the vulnerability of life. Particularly in Guatemala and El Salvador, this is a recognition of those who make possible, regardless of their sex (male, female), the possibility of a much more humane and dignified world.
