I had a conversation with a friend one day; and we were talking about family and life; and I asked him: āhow do you see your kidsā future?ā
And he said to me: āmy grandfather walked 10 miles to work every day; my father walked 5; Iām driving a Cadillac; my son is in a Mercedes; my grandson will be in a Ferrari. But,ā he said, āmy great-grandson will be walking again.ā So I asked him: āwhy is that?ā
And he said to me: ātough times create strong men; strong men create easy times; easy times create weak men; weak men create tough times. Many will not understand, but you have to raise warriors.ā
