10 Black Men Discuss Why They Dream Of Being Fathers One Day
Denzyl Amankwah, 28
I remember when I was younger, one thing I would always look forward to is hearing the door open when my dad walked in from a long day’s work. I would run from one end of the house to the other, at an Usain Bolt level speed, to jump into his arms. I have the pleasure of being a Godfather to a young three-year-old boy. The last time he visited me, he did that same run into my arms that allowed me to feel that joy on the other end for the first time. I often say the world isn’t ready for my second coming. When that time comes,I look forward to having somebody that looks up to me as their protector and mentor.
