You know the issues I had growing up, and I don't believe that you would dispute the statement that my parents, in spite of good intentions, pushed me in the wrong direction. I can say this about my parents. They lived a life centered on family and hard work. They protected and supported those they loved. They helped because they could. It was never a choice, it was an absolute obligation. Live for the future, for the children. Education isn't an option, it is a requirement because that is how you prepare the children for when you are gone. I don't think there is much in the details of either my life or yours that is similar to that of my parents, however, we both lived lives focused, formatted and centered on the above values. They didn't have a clue how to get us there but they did show us where we wanted to go. Maybe its not about setting us on the right "path" but making us aware of the right destination.
