as Parents

.

We do our best
We can only offer you
the Wisdom of what
Life
has presented to us

.

We know we are not
Perfect
and we know
the World has changed
and you Feel
you have different
Challenges
than we did

.

But as much as things
Change
they remain the Same

.

We looked at our
Parents
the same way
we Rebelled
the same way
we Rejected
the same way
we sometimes
Hurt
the same way

.

But in the end
we Realized
they were not always
Wrong

.

We cannot
Live
your Life
for you
But
we can Offer
you the Opportunity
Not
to make the same
Mistakes
.
