Untruths in Life
|
Okay, maybe they aren't lies, but more about what you learn as you get older. When I was young, there were reasons that my parents said the things they did...more like getting me to act (or react) better.
1) The early bird gets the worm (I think he's tired a lot, though...and this was to make sure we did our farm chores, I'm sure)
2) This is going to hurt me more than you (completely untrue...I was the one getting spanked)
3) Some day your skinny legs will be beautiful (they're still skinny!)
4) Boys will eventually notice your great personality and like it as much as a pretty face (ha)
5) It shows character to be the bigger person (I should be 6'5" by now...I really hated this one)
Maybe you have your own pearls to share...please do. In the meantime, it's good to be grown up!
