When I was young, I often thought that my dad was too hard on me. When I compared my life to those of my friends, I resented him even more. Now I realize that without those hard lessons, I would not be equipped for the real trials of life. I raised my own children in a similar way because I shared the same goal with my Dad; to raise independent adults who can handle life’s problems. Today, I look back on those hard times and I am thankful. I’ve learned the truth of that saying, “What doesn’t kill you, will make you stronger.”
What hard lessons are you grateful for today? Are you passing those lessons on to your kids? Comment here.
