you may think morbid... but it was a calm dream...
and here's how it went.
Self taught man, and proud of it.
He saw hard work from a young age.
What you see here is a man who worked himself to death. LITERALLY. take note. because you won't see that very often. you might see someone and think oh ya they work hard.
not like this.
this is Real.
I happen to have a good work ethic. some might call that OCD, whatever I learned it from him and I hope that my kids learn it from me.
He was raised in a time when there was not diagnosis for ADD or ADHD or whatever all the kids have these days. The cure for all those acronyms was WORK.
W.O.R.K.
of course, that may be what he died from, but he lived a good life, wasn't easy, but it was good. He was a pretty funny, when he wasn't lining me out. I saw a sign on Pinterest that was pretty epic...
it's a picture of a mom holding her baby and the caption says... I plan to give you love, nurturing, and just enough dysfunction to make you funny.
Done.
If you are lucky you will be able to surround yourself with people who work like him. You can learn a lot. and he'll tell you, so Listen up son.
You take care of each other,
Let me remind you... the only time when something really counts - is when it's hard for you to do. Is it hard to take care of others, ya it is. Is it hard to love one another (are you kidding me), ya it is. Is it hard to send two kids on a mission at the same time? while building a house, running a farm, and managing a business. Ya it is... Financially, Emotionally, Physically- you name it.
Is it hard to come to earth and have your spirit be put into a body that is not capable of doing what your will wants it to do... YA IT IS.
He was only a man, ONE Man.
but did he do? what did he teach?
what do you remember about him?
what has he taught you?
Common Sense comes to mind.
Accountability.
Honesty.
I mentioned above...A hard days work.
