The greatest thing you'll ever learn
As I was making my breakfast this morning I had the KSJN Morning Show on, and the song "Nature Boy" started playing.
After listening for a moment, I stepped out into living room, where Fiona was playing a computer game and Rob was talking to Delia, who was sitting on his lap.
"May I have your attention for a moment?" I said. My family looked up at me expectantly. "I just wanted to say that I think that this song has it right. The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return." I went over and kissed Delia on the top of her head. "If you take anything from what your parents teach you, remember that."
"That's a pretty good rule," said Rob.
If you had to boil down what you want to pass on to your children to one sentence, what would it be?
