RE: a speech to live by

Yes.

OK, I'll tell a funny story. About 18 year ago I was doing a repaint of the interior of a residence.

One afternoon I was painting their 8 year old daughters bedroom & she comes into the room to watch me. So she's sitting on the bed jabbering to me & then asks "do you like painting?"

I turn around & say "not really" & she says "so why do you do it" & I say "because I'm not smart enough to do anything else, so do good in school or you could end up being a painter".

She went to school the next day & told the teacher what I told her.

I still know the family & she remembers my advice to this day.
