Chance

We were in the clinic when my son asked, in his exact words,” Dad, Why are you looking so tired?” It stunned me. I took a deep breath and answered him,” Well, I have not been eating. Lost my appetite” He smiled and just looked back at his PSP, listening to Chicago’s It’s Hard To Say I am Sorry. The song disturbed me, really.

Son,
If I could answer you I will tell you this. In all that you do, follow your heart. Do what you must. Don’t worry about the others. Chase after what you looking for, the hardest that you can and get it. Never waste a chance, never waste a heart.

I will tell him that same thing I wrote here, in a few days.
