No need for 😢, dick. Though I long left organized religion, I don't think you ever really shake that shit. And the one Proverb I remember from my grandmother and my mother is: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."

I tried hard to do that. The son went into the Army as a Mortuary Affairs Specialist in Iraq -- and remains one today. People love how he lovingly cares for their loved ones, making sure, as best he could, they see them as they were. He's GOOD at it (had a lot of practice in the Iraq War), and people LOVE him for it. Track star would've been good -- but this is SO-O-O much better!
