"Father and Son: Lessons of Life"
Skonczylam wlasnie piekna ksiazke Tima Russerta poswiecona jego ojcu "Big Russ and Me, Father and Son: Lessons of Life".
Oczywiscie polecam ta ksiazke. Tim Russert byl osoba, ktora podziwialam... Jednak nie bede sie tu o nim rozpisywac, zainteresowanych odsylam do Dr. Google :)
Pisze ponizszy fragment (wybaczcie, ze po angielsku, ale przepisuje z ksiazki) zeby zapamietac piekne slowa wypowiedziane przez ojca do syna ... byc moze po to, zeby przekazac je mojemu wlasnemu synowi.
"Luke, along the way you will hit some hurdles and experience some setbacks. I will always be there for you, as Grandpa was for me. But remember, while you are always, always loved, you are never, never entitled. As Grandpa likes to say, "The world doesn't owe you a favor."
You, do however, owe this world something. To live a good and decent and meaningful life would be the ultimate affirmation of Grandpa's lessons and values. The wisest commencement speech I ever heard was all of fifteen words: "The best exercise of the human heart is reaching down and picking someone else up."
Off you go. I am so very proud to be your father. Study hard. Have fun. Keep your honor. Pursue every one of your dreams. They really are reachable. As Grandpa would say: What a country!
Love, Dad"
