Grandpa's Advice
Hope that this will once
again confirm that the most important
information in your life won't come from a teacher, the library or the
internet, but from a mentor, and on a very personal level.
My long-passed grandfather's birthday is coming up, and for me it is a
time to reminisce. The long walks we used to take.
The long drives, the special trips he would make to pick me up so I
could spend weekends with him, and the advice he used to give!
Much was wasted because I was young when he died. If he were alive today
and sharing his pearls of wisdom, I'd be a better man. Those gems were
well
and good, but the one I remember most, the jewel in the crown of
grandfatherly advice, came when I was only 12 .
We were sitting in a park, watching children and their mothers enjoying
a beautiful spring day. He told me that one day I'd find a woman and start
my own family. "And son," he said, "be sure you marry a woman with small
hands."
"How come, Grandpa?" I asked.
"It makes your kn*b look bigger." He replied.
