My Wish

Much of my life has been invested in nurturing my children to embrace kindness. To practice and project decency in their lives and thus reap the rewards that good behavior does inspire. To revere and embrace love given and received. They will be bequeathed some material riches when I am gone, but these moral principles and lessons passed down to me from my folks are my most enduring and valuable legacy. My lifelong desire is that my offspring pass on these values to their future progenies, as there is no greater human gift to bestow or receive.

Notes

Decent behavior and kindness are acquired

through repetitive examples and teachings

instilled in us by loving family members.
