Purpose of life


Father to son - son you can’t live your life - in my pocket.

Son to father - father that pocket is in - your favourite jacket.

Son said father - is the pocket deep enough.

Father replied son - it is your responsibility - to provide for your son - food: shelter: guidance: understanding: and assistance from the day of my birth -  to when your pocket is empty.

The next day there is a new jacket in the wardrobe…


  • Life’s Journey: A father’s advice to his son about independence and the importance of providing for oneself.
  • Generational Support: The father’s expectation for his son to care for him in his old age, just as he has provided for his son.
  • Symbolic Gesture: The father buying a new jacket symbolises the end of an era and the son’s transition to independence.
