good msgs all the way around...

i think its interesting that all of these ideas are so different but could be argued for any one of them to be the most important creed ever...


was also thinking that now... my son will be 21 next month... and... i think he does well with being true to himself... i respect his integrity... he worries about his credit and keeps up his bills...

but...

i wish that he did love himself more... and put more faith in himself... he had his heart broken more than a year ago... and.. i think it about kicked his ass... hoping he will snap out of it...
and...
my advice to him about getting out what you put in has fallen on dead ears i think... i dont think he has any idea about tomorrow... or even care...
someone pointed out a recent NYT article about 20 being a new stage of adolescence... if my kid is any indicator... i believe it...

i asked him tho... after i posted this thread.... and he quoted both mine and janines words to me... so... maybe all hope is not lost... he is a good boy... and will grow up when he is ready i guess...
