To the next generation

To the next generation:

When I pass into the nether regions of the possible afterlife, I wish you luck, but, before y time of death approaches, I shall give you these pieces of advice for life:

-Follow the rules, because when you do, you can extend yourself to great heights, unless there’s a roof, then you’ll hit your head on the roof.

-Don’t worry about jobs, there aren’t many out there.  Mom + Dad will take care of you.

-Always believe in something, especially if you have a test tomorrow.  It helps you understand that not everything is under your control (In fact, hardly anything is under your control).

-Your dreams are important, until you wake up, then you can just daydream.

-It is best to be home, especially in the night.

-Be yourself, but let me tell you something, what is yourself.  YOURself can be many things,, which brings me to this important saying. You are multi-faceted, and people are multi-faceted.

Remember if  you aim to be a big-shot, or to be famous, like a NFL, NBA player or a celebrity, or even a scientist.  Just remember this, Legend fades into Myth, and even Myth is forgotten through the passing and coming of ages.

-Thought never dies, it just fades away.

If there’s nothing left for you, go somewhere else.  I don’t care where, just-go.

Take this advice and absorb it like some sort of sponge, and ove on with your life.  Now just---go.
