Life:

- Be you: God made you, you. He didn’t make you someone else, so be who you are.

- Be honest: First, and most importantly, be honest with yourself. And then be honest with others.

- Your word is your word: Your word is one of the most powerful things you possess. No one can take it from you, only you can destroy it. If you make a promise, you keep it. So be careful when pledging your word.

- Do you best: It’s the Boy Scout motto, and it’s right. There may well be others who are smarter, run faster, have more money. That doesn’t matter. What matters is that you do your best in whatever you do. Be willing to “sign your name” to any and every endeavor – and know you can say, “I did my best.”

- Always learn: I don’t just mean school, but continue to read. Learn from others, whether it’s how to fix a car engine or build a nuclear reactor. Never give up your thirst for knowledge. Make it a goal in life to learn at least one new thing every day.

- Help others: And don’t expect payback. Lend a hand. And always defend those who can’t defend themselves.

- Be true: First and foremost to yourself. You know right from wrong. Don’t follow the crowd if they are wrong. Be true to yourself. Take that stand. Never waiver.

- Remember family: Good or bad, your family is your family. Look out for your brothers, and always try to get along. You may fight, but get over it. It’s important. They will always be there.

- Be Passionate: And in whatever you do. Care about what you do. Anyone can learn a skill; passion is from the heart and soul. It can’t be taught, it’s up to you.

- Never run with scissors: In other words, be careful trying something new, especially if it involves something that might get you hurt physically. Seek help from those who’ve been there, done that.

- Ask for directions: Many times you don’t know where you’re going on this path of life. Don’t be afraid to ask for help and directions, you’ll save yourself a lot of time, money and frustration.

- We are here: Remember that your mom and I will always be there for you. We may not be able to carry your load, but we will always walk the road with you when you need us.

- Marry someone like your mom: Just do it.
