Summary

This quote suggests that parents typically make the decision to send their children to college based on their own experiences. Those who have attended college themselves tend to value higher education and believe it is beneficial for their children's future prospects. On the other hand, parents who did not attend college might view it as an opportunity they missed out on and are therefore motivated to ensure their children have that opportunity. Thus, the quote highlights how personal experiences shape parental decisions regarding their children's education.

Grief is a curious thing, when it happens unexpectedly. It is a Band-aid being ripped away, taking the top layer off a family. And the underbelly of a household is never pretty, ours no exception.

The future is an unknown, but a somewhat predictable unknown. To look to the future we must first look back upon the past. That is where the seeds of the future were planted. I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.

Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.
