On the fatherhood

It's difficult to define a father precisely
So, let's imagine how a father would be
A father may be figuratively similar to these:
A starting point, a fulcrum, a roof, a piece of land
A mountain, a sky, a star, a beam of sunshine
A lamp, a mirror, a book, a guide,a set of minds, 
...
I reckon a father can be similar to each of them 
if he is viewed from different perspectives
However,  fatherhood will not be fairly defined 
If  all the pieces above aren't yet combined ?
