From a Parent

Mother’s day is this Sunday and I have been thinking about being a parent. For some reason my mind went back to a scene in a movie (maybe that is because I watch too many movies). In the movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Brad Pitt’s character writes a letter to his daughter. It is pretty good advice from any parent and I thought I would remind you of what it says 0 or share it anew.

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.
