But a young gentleman from India sent notice that he had just had a son. Here is what I sent him.
Great news!
Remember, that as a father…..
From you he will learn strength, and whether to exploit the weak or lift them up.
From you he will learn how to treat and value women, in how you treat your wife.
From you he will learn respect and kindness and if they matter at all.
From you he will learn the value of hard work, or the lack of effort.
I am sure you will teach him well.
May these upcoming years be filled with laughter and joy.
I know it is cheesy, most “Pearls of Wisdom” are, but at least I didn’t quote Churchill to him!
