Lessons from my father, Thoughts

Lesson #12- It’s hard to take your own advice. I make dumb mistakes all the time. So do others. It’s okay.

I’m continuing my series on Lessons from my father. They seem to be getting harder, and more profound. My dad was brilliant in many ways, but he was horrible at taking his own advice, or at least it seemed that way. He had great ideas, great perspective, and unfortunately he often didn’t take his own advice.

Lessons from my father, Thoughts

Lesson #11- About Evil – Evil is a real thing, and there are people who serve it. Most of them are foolishly unaware of the evil they do. Be careful of them, but love them too, and pray for them. Remember that even the best people, with the best intentions can hurt you.

This is not a blog post about morality. This is a post about understanding that there are people who do harm, either intentionally, or unintentionally. The harm itself, is real, and has consequences.
