This is so very true. I learned this lesson many years ago. It was great to read it again. I forwarded it to our 15-year old daughter. Good words to live by for sure!
Nancy, thanks for your comment! I had heard this story a while back too, but had forgotten about it. You’ve inspired me to forward this story to my oldest son! He’s going to be 14 in November and might enjoy this story about how he manages his choices in life.
Such a great message. Thanks for my daily dose of what’s important, Karen!
Glad you liked this Erin!
