I wonder how he did as father to his own child/children.
Great
If he was almost a millionaire how did he go back to living in his mums has after couple weeks
Proud of you sharing your heart felt truth. Did you know your Heavenly Father, who created you loves you unconditionally, He is so proud of you and has been with you your whole life. Watch ‘ The Fathers love letter’ in you tube. Bless you 😊
I m complitly opposite i was borned seekly so i was rase well like a flower i newer had to work i was newer toth to work hard all those things that kid needs to lern in order to ne able to funltion normaly as a grown up i newer had that i have spend a long time with a simple and most normal of thing ewen to this day but im awer of this and im trying to reprogram my self to get rid of my old habits and replace tham with new im glad that i got to her your story and i hope you are doing bether
I don't care what the hell you have gone through in your life. If you're on your deathbed and you can't tell your son that you're proud of him, you have failed as a father. Plain and simple.
Not just as a father. As a decent human also.
Ahmed Hussain IM WEAK
You know, I was actually thinking about his story for months... Then one day I thought : What if his father objective was to make him the toughest person he could be. Like... He wanted say to him "Look, son, no matter how hard you work, there will always be people who will treat you like shit". I mean, chances are slim, his father was probably a jerk. But if his objective was to raise a resilient kid, he succeeded. As Thomas said, all he knew was work

My father once told me that if all I could ever be is a trash collector then be the best trash collector that I could be, and he would be proud. I never needed words of encouragement in life again.
Your father was right
Trash collectors get paid well.
The best trash collector In the world is probably cleaning oceans beaches etc. successful for sure
I told all of my Kids the same thing. Also, do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life. I never had any support in anything when I was growing up and I swore my Kids would never face that.
@@hummingbird9221 I understand what you mean. My sons'father never used to support them, always underating what they did and I did all I could to help them find their way and they are grateful now. I'm a teacher and always tell parents "trust your children"
That father envied his son's success. He died poor, bitter & in debt, so he couldn't bring himself to admit that his son had done better.
No the father resented him from birth, that he had to provide for him. No doubt his own father was that way to him. You can't teach what you don't know and you can't give what you don't have. His father was, sadly an empty shell, hard and mean. His son finally found someone to teach him otherwise, and ran with it. The father never did, sadly.
I had a grandfather like this who envied my father's success and was incapable of showing him the love and respect he deserved from his father. Now my dad is bitter and depressed but he is determined to never treat me and my siblings the way he was treated by my grandfather.
It could be many reasons, we will never know.
It takes more than DNA to be a parent.

When my sons were little boys they did the same and one evening their father said to me: "no need to wait for me behind the door it gets on my nerves. When I get back home I want to have time to undress lay down my things and blow my nose." I'm about to leave him.

I appreciate good and kind people. But those who were abused by their caretakers, and yet chose to break the cycle instead of passing it on...man I don't know how to describe the amount of respect I have for them.
John C this guy described my grandfather and my dads relationship. My dad in many ways was psychologically stuck at a 12 year old level of maturity due to that abusive relationship where love was always withheld. Till the day he died, he was broken in many ways. Sad for sure but he swore he’d never be like his father. I am forever grateful my dad broke that cycle with me. I’m plenty tough, work very hard, had many hard jobs, saved many lives, and I feel like I’m happier then most without all the machismo bullshit.
My parents are like that! They came from a poor country and got hit a lot. I have so much love and respect for my parents, and will feel forever indebted to their kindness.

I'm just happy most of the commenters realize how abusive and horrible his childhood was. When I saw this on Facebook a while back, most of the comments were about how he should feel lucky his father taught him such a great work ethic. No consideration to the fact that his work ethic was solely a cry for his father's love. The man had time to sit in the car but couldn't watch the hockey games. That tells you everything you need to know about how his dad saw his son.

It’s so hard not to desire human approval. I choose to believe who God says I am and what I’m capable of instead. And yes speaking positive words out loud and even scriptures really help.
It is important for a father to teach his son to be disciplined, but it is also important to show love and that you're there to support your son.

Agreed. It was distracting.

Yeah… The music was kind of distracting

I can't believe this guy described my early life with an alternate ending... I found my mentor when my son was born, my son. I raised him by myself and tried to instill all the values I needed and he became incredible! I watch him and try to emulate him. However, I still see myself as a failure no matter how much I tell myself differently. Im 50 and I want better for me. This guy is awesome!
Hey intrepid thought I would say hi and encourage you to continue the journey of transformation it’s never to late to change the programming
I never had a mentor. My father always told me to do something else after failing once. He never ever encouraged me to try again. He basically told me to give up and not try when I failed. I still feel that way.
Watching this hit me so hard! so much emotion ..the mentor was godsend im so glad they crossed paths!! So powerful
When his father said “Nothing that I could think of” I cried
Nice
me too smh what a dick
When I saw you and realized your cute I cried
This was days even after paying that scumbag narcissists debts off! The sad thing is the father would have had a father like this also going back some generations and he is repeating the pattern. Thankfully, Rock has broken that cycle and that will hopefully not poison his future family tree!
Shafe Jawad I was just going to say that too. Piece of shit only thinking about himself and the lack of what he has. If you are going to be a destructive hurricane. Do it over away from others till you figure yourself out so you don’t drag down other people too.

My dad left us a few years ago I had to take care of my family while also caring about my grades it was hard especially that I am an immigrant in Croatia I tried my best to get good grades that some day I can give money to my mum coz we get like 2000 kunas a month which is very little
My grandpa was kind of like the man's dad. When I look at the way he tells the story and the way he behaved as a child to get his dad's attention. I saw my dad in him. My dad always worked hard. And therefore he gave me a great work ethic.
Edit: currently I am 12 years old and I'm washing windows. It's not much but it's a start.

Rose Rose my mom would do it intentionally. Said I deserve a life of pain, but then again she is a narcissist, psychopath

God bless this man, he earned his life the hard way
This story really resonates with me. I often look at my young daughter and it makes me want to cry for the little girl I was at her age. The things I had to deal with at such a young age make me want to hug my daughter so tight. I love that both my kids have spirit and have the confidence to just be themselves. At their age I was frightened of my own shadow and still haven't found my peace but seeing this has inspired me to keep going. Making sure my children grow up knowing they're loved, wanted and supported is a start.
Hearing him talk and express himself makes me think he’d be a good actor
This is a very amazing story...you turned all that disappointment into something positive

*Many Parents are bad at Parenting because thats how they themselves were parented. Some others are just going through Life projecting their problems on their children and not even seeing them there. It is really such a thing, our childhood years are the most formative and we carry along a lot of things from the past. This story just helped prepare me for so much including parenting which I am super excited for. Thank you so much Rock Thomas for sharing so much of you in such a selfless way!*
True .
@@shishidoseijuro7770, your mom's true.
I can see your age clearly by commenting that joke bud .
My grandparents had 13 children and if one misbehaved they would beat all of them on their legs with a stick until they bleed. When my mom is nervous she touches the scars behind her knees, she told me that she promised to God she would never make her kids experience that pain. I'm 24 and none of my parents have ever hit me (except once when she threw a Chancla at me because I was being a hurtful brat), so yes a lot of those neglectful parents had abusive ones but you always can be better than them but that requires work and not a lot of them want to do that.
@@shishidoseijuro7770, I could see your mom's age.
Okay I’m crying !!! 😭😭😭 I could relate to this because my mom was like that with me I always felt I was never good enough , she would belittle me , make fun of me and blame me when bad things happened and now I currently work as a caregiver and one of my clients has been such a blessing because she always thanks me for my work ethic , praises me and lets me know I’m a good person . So now I’m a strong believer in encouraging and motivating others
This story broke my heart! I'm so glad that mentor stepped in and finally said the words he needed to hear. What a powerful message! Thank you!
Developing strong self esteem is a tough process but its an important one.
Brian Tobias you’re everywhere lol
MULTIMILLIONAIRE Haha I know :P
Ah not gonna try to offend you here, but you're using the wrong word. Its not self-esteem but confidence. Self-esteem is admiring ones self and it is completely overused in our society. The problem with millenials was the fact that they were raised with having a high self-esteem from participation trophies and etc. So now they don't know whats it's like to fail and are completely narsisitic. So again not trying to offend you here, but try to use self confidence from now on because your kinda apart of the problem in our future generation's success.
I think your confused about this video, his dad clearly blured the line between being a good dad and a someone who didn't have any idea of how to bond with a child. (100% you don't have kids do you?)
Self esteem come from support and encouragement, not being smashed at such a young age, he wouldn't understand why his dad was being like that.
If you don’t have the right mind set become rich is ten time harder
Had a stepfather like your dad. His favorite thing to say was that I was too stupid to tip over a bucket. I too moved out when I was 17. Now I have children of my own and I vowed to try my best in giving them confidence and to make sure they love and believe in themselves. The other day my eight year old came in the kitchen and just told me what a lucky and happy child he is and how much he loves me... I got so teary, bless him... I think I'm on the right track...
Much love and happiness to you!
That's the best!
Much love and happiness to you and your family

Thanks to Rock Thomas for sharing his story and the powerful message. Too many seem to be focusing on how poor of a father he had to the point where they're not hearing the message being delivered in the video. Love the "What follows the 'I am' follows you."
So heartbreaking to think his dad was such a dried up human being he could not express love to his own son. What a failure as a parent. The only gift he gave his son was a bucket of hurt and shame.
This was inspirational. I will never again let other label me. THANK YOU!!! Your pain turned to gold.

Thank you for sharing this because we all need a reminder of who we are. Sometimes the people we love the most don't realize how much they hurt us.
At some point in grad school, I had a professor talk about how the way we label negative behaviors will dictate how we view ourselves forever. One of the examples they used was about a child who takes something that doesn't belong to them. Instead of them developing the understanding of "I am a person who has stolen," they are taught to believe "I am a thief."
Society teaches the person to label themselves with a permanent stamp. That then lingers as a factual belief in their minds, so it will be used to excuse their future behaviors. "I'm so sorry I stole again, it's who I am."
Rock's story here is a perfect illustration of what that state of mind can do, but it's also proof that beliefs can be un-taught with the right support. Everyone should have at least ONE PERSON - friend, family member, counselor, doctor - whom they can turn to for support and feel is on their side. If you dont know who that person is for you, start sharing your story with people and see who responds; it only takes one good support to make all the difference.
You don't become a father by having a child, you have to earn the title of father.

No way
His father was crazy !!! plain and simple. It just goes to show you that everyone should not have children and I wouldn't marry his son because he wasn't raised in the house of love so imagine what kind of husband he will be?
@@lisatillett4960 that man is amazing. He has changed lives of hundreds. I don't think it matters what home you grew up in. It matters what your mindset is and if you're willing to change it.
Beautiful message and words
@@Puuws you dont want to force things, that's not the way to go about it, well depending on what it is. But that quote means that the harder you work for something the easier it will get, remember there's always two sides to a hill, the uphill part, that is hard to get up and the downhill part that you can just glide down
I think one of the biggest lessons any father hopes to teach his son is the importance and reward of hard work and how far it can take you. But do so in an uplifting manner. Sometimes there is a need for being stern, but it shouldn't overshadow encouragement. Belitting, degrading insults do absolutely nothing to "toughen up" kids from a young age, if anything it breeds resentment and anger which is counterproductive. Give discipline where it is needed, but always remind your son that he is loved.
This is terribly sad about this guys dad. Nothing but bitterness in his heart. How do guys like this turn out as well as they do with parents like that?
Its drive to not become the monster that hurt you.
They grew up seeing what they could become. So they chose the opposite.

Check out the Personal Development School...it addresses the core wounds and helps with reprogramming. It helps so you can reset your subconscious and parent your child in a conscious way, so they have a secure attachment.
It’s so powerful.
I wish you all the best!
Sounds like he was talking about my dad’s relationship with me up until I was about 25.
I stopped paying so much attention to his abusive behavior about then. I told him in the kindest way that I just wouldn’t stick around and listen to it. No one should have to.
Also he started respecting my personal space once I asked him to. I used to say, “give me an arms length please “. He was always a close talker and in my face. Funny how 6 feet back seems to be just what the doctor ordered these days. I’m 49 now and have what I call a pretty good relationship with him.
I grew up in a similar way. It was and is hard to battle those demons, but it is all worth it. And I'm winning, because I have that work ethic.
Your great
When you watch this video many times over the span of a week because of teaching multiple classes, it burns in your head, but it's such a great video
Hurt people hurt people. Sounds like his dad had demons he didn't deal with. No matter your age, the foundation (childhood), plays a huge role throughout your life. It's a fight loving yourself if your upbringing was anything but loving.
Agree 100% if you dont learn then no one else will I had to teach myself that and if you dont love yourself no one can love you because you don't respect the love they try to offer. In order to love you have to have and be loved. Thanks for what you wrote I liked it.
Amen
People like that are taught to value money above all. But when he made his money the dad was simply jealous. His dad just didn't have anything to give him as he didn't have anything himself.
People should be wary of expecting praise, from people unworthy to praise them.
Facts! Childhood is literally what builds most of a person’s character

You may not believe me when I say that I’ve watched this video everyday from the time I found it. It’s changed my life by turning me from a lazy bastard who can’t stop procrastinating to a hard working person who can’t work hard enough. I’m very appreciative for this mans story and I really don’t think I would’ve changed my ways unless I saw this video last year.
Michael WTP this vid was made in February of this year. It could've been a year. No hate.
Just telling you.
Ava Lps yea I know but since last year I’ve picked myself up
This Man is amazing , I agree.
I’m dead af
High key I hope you fuck up
Maybe it would make me feel like I’m not the only one
@@zarmadyl5038 hey me too
You are an incredible speaker. Thank you for having the courage to make this video.
A man's success should not be judged on how much he puts on the table, but on how much time his family wants to spend with him, and how much of that time he spends with them.
Just wanted to say thank you. It's awesome people like you Rock, who help make this world a better place.
I was really hoping his father said "I have always been proud of you."
Life isnt like the movies
Me too
lol at least he was being honest though
@@nh-uu3cs honest is overall good but there's a way to still be honest and not be an unmitigated asshole while stating your opinion. What a shitty father......
His real father, God, his creator, his true supporter, has always been proud of him. This guy he calls "dad" was just a sperm donor and didn't deserve to have a son as good as him. But God is proud of him. God is his true Father.
Always stay positive. 👊🏽
Except this is a fantasy for the large majority of people. "I had absolutely nothing, until one day I thought I'll get into real estate... then this guy steps into my office". If you have your own office and the money to just "get into real estate" on a whim, you're nowhere near struggling.
If someone can overcome this. They can overcome everything!
I try to stay positive but everything or mostly everything turn negative so i gave up on being positive. So now i just always think that nothing good will happen and i cant do anything significant. Its a bad way of thinking but it makes me feel better than hoping for something that wont happen.
@@br1an_235 Keep your head up, Brian.
@@br1an_235 why?
That words that follow ‘I am’ follow you. Beautiful words. What a truly inspiring and emotional story 🥰
Every child should listen to something like this as they grow up, as inspiration for what they can be, and every parent, to learn what not to be.
If you're a parent, learn from this and do better. It's not about making your child's life too easy, because life isn't easy, but it is about rewarding effort, learning from failures, celebrating successes and showing that you care. One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time, and your approval. For all us kids (and at 42 I'm still a kid inside) this shows what putting in that effort can get you. Anything worth having is worth working hard for. The harder you work the sweeter the rewards. Also don't base your value on someone else's approval. Compete with yourself to be better today than you were yesterday.
Probably the best 8 minutes I have ever spent on the internet
I saw an 8 minute meme compilation that was pretty good
thank you
This.
Fucking this.
My father is my best friend
He gave me everything love , attention , and we had alot of fun , he never beat me or being a salty with me
He helped me to work hard in my medical college, and now i’m a doctor
didnt know arabs do that
Your father is an exception
I was abandoned by my father........I only had a step father who verbally abused me....he was insensitive just like the father in the video.......... I have never played ball with him or hugged him only called him father once........NOT ALL OF US HAVE THE IDEAL CHILDHOOD. :-(
Abo Mohammad your Lucky.... i havnt even met my father... and my poor excuse for a foster father just abused me...and told me to do jobs..... my mother is dead so yeah! Your lucky.
Your lucky to have a dad. My dad abandoned my family, married 3 other women and had more than 4 kids with them. He never gave us money to support ourselves so my mom had to work. He never came to any thing, was never there for the hard times and didn't help me when I was going thru depression. He didn't save me from suicidal thoughts. He's a piece of shit and I feel sorry for my mum. She's still married to him but she won't divorce him since she doesn't want to put pressure on us if we had to choose between living with my mom or dad. Don't take parents for granted cuz one day they'll be gone.
This makes me appreciate my father so very much. He is far from perfect, but he is so much better than the man this guy is describing.
Pretty much sums up my old man. I can't even remember hugging him , not even once.
Why do people have kids if they don't want to interact with them?
People like that don’t really have children. They have sux.
Children are simply consequences that they most likely resent.
It is really sad for their children, their partners and even themselves because they throw away the chance to experience true joy and pure love.
To be slaves.
It’s not always a choice. Many people have mental issues and many of these people were raised by people that didn’t teach them empathy and care! His father had issues.
To get money from the government for the kids
I don’t every remember ever having a conversation with my parents or being comforted by them or anything. When my mother wasn’t yelling the house was dead quiet. No dinner time conversations or anything with my parents. So I’ve often wondered why they even had me if they never wanted me.
I cried while watching this. I've been always told I can be better, I have to change, I'm a bad influence, I am fat. My parents were never home and when they were they never said they were proud of me. I learnt to do everything on my own, I never asked for help, because i didn't feel like i deserved it...now that I'm older they try to be nice to me, but all their comments and their judgements are still inside my head. So when they say something nice I just don't believe it....
You're doing great, You don't need to change, I'm don't really know you..,, I don't know what you look like but you're perfect the way you are, I'm so sorry you had to do things alone, You deserve help. Sorry this wasn't much though.
@@lucyrat trust me it does help, more than you think. Thank you for taking the time to reply. Have a nice day ❤❤
Leonor López lacañina you welcome I hope u have a great day too.
I had also cried... By watching it... Let's ressurect Leonor.... I don't know what you want... Believe.. Nvr like me... ..you can... Best Wishes....
It's OK
His story was so sad it made me cry but proud that he made something of himself... and his dad dont deserve to know his gains... this is one of the many inspirational story ive heard man
My Father was a very broken man. He was the toughest man I've ever known. He got that way; because his life was so hard. He had epilepsy when it was considered a mental disorder. He was sent to a hospital for the mentally insane on several occasions as a child. He was kicked out of school because of his seizures, yet was an amazing student. Had a sharp mind even into his final days. He wasn't able to drive and was never hired for a normal job. He worked odd jobs for anyone he could. For years, the only thing he lived for were my grandparents. Once they passed he had nothing to live for. Going to church and meeting my mother, I believe, saved his life. They had me when my dad was almost 60. He was not good at showing emotion and was very frugal with words of praise. I'd only seen him cry twice.
As he grew closer to his death I'd learned a lot about how little love he'd received in his life. Even though my mother, brother, and I would tell him we loved him, he always had a bit of doubt that we meant it. He almost had the attitude that no one could genuinely love him. He was convinced that he was the reason I grew up with physical issues. I learned all of this from other people; because he never talked about what he'd been through. Towards the end of his life, I told him everything I had felt as a kid. I mentioned my frustrations about our lack of time spent playing together. I told him that I loved him and that it wasn't his fault for my physical conditions. After that conversation, we bonded as Father and Son for the first time in my life. As I said he wasn't emotional, but I knew he loved me. He started to say he loved me first, and expressed his pride in what I've done in my life. Once I learned to understand him better, and expressed it to him, our relationship became so much better. I'm very thankful we were able to become close at the end. I know, not everyone has that opportunity, so I realize I have reason to be grateful. I love him and miss him and Mom so dearly to this day.
I don`t know you, but I love you man.
Αλέξανδρος Χριστόπουλος I don’t know you, but I love you
Love you too Alex.
Και εγω τον αγαπω
Well said. Sometimes the stones thrown our way, become the building blocks we need. Inspirational
His dad taught him the value of hard work. But never once he had said I love you or I'm proud of you, etc. That's kinda hurtful
Dad: Omae wa mou shindeiru
Son: Nani
But that's not true why so much you already have to say about what you say happened and there won't be nobody to tell anybody different and you've had that privilege from the beginning and you still walk the floor with the same privileges can you just at least this one thing just this one these please you don't have to lie about it's not even a very big one in all reality so please
Thank you for stating the obvious
ppl will break you down stay away from toxic negative ppl who just don't have nothing positive to say about nothing.
Hats off to you sir. I'm proud of you just listening to you so fired up. Congratulations on your achievements. I Learnt some years ago. To find peace and gratification one have to life life on their own terms no matter ppl might say do u first everytime.
I just want to thank you for this video you posted, helps me to try to think like you had to in order to even have a value in this life. You are a fantastically nice person and I wish you all the best in life
Sometimes the mentors are the ones who give you that final push to establish your persona
Or Igor
I really can’t tell what his dad wanted out of him.
He wanted him to be successful man thats every parents dream
@@someone-eo1zf yeah but also every parent wants their kid to know they love them......
some one are you stupid?? Or just ignorant?? Nothing his dad did set him up for success, yes he learned to work hard. But his whole life he never felt loved or was good enough to his dad. Fuck his dad.
You'd need to know his dads story, why his mom wasn't there? His dad probably hated his life, yet couldn't end it because of "responsibilities" (his son). I know a bit about what that feel like. I'm just not as shitty as this dudes father was.
Atleast hope he remembers his dad as a symbol of hard work and motivation and not a complete dick and a horrible father
So nice to see that you choose to take your life in hand and turn it into your own. I am so happy for everyone waking up from their nightmares and letting the morning sunshine into their hearts ♥️
To get up like phoenixes
Lord, can I relate to this. My father committed suicide when I was four, and my mother was a narcissist and clinically depressed. She never once said, "I love you" or "I am proud of you." She was cold, critical, and broken. I thought my dad was in heaven watching over me, and I strove for perfection, trying to be a perfect daughter, ever seeking my mother's love and trying to make my dad proud. When I was 13, she said, "You are nothing and a nobody and no one will ever love you." I will go to my grave hearing those words, never once hearing "I love you." For years, I set about reprogramming my brain. Those who didn't know me probably thought I was the most conceited person in the world, but I felt like the smallest person on the planet. It's amazing the effect that broken parents have on a child. More amazing still is the resilience and strength of character that it can build if that child as an adult can overcome and rise above it. The cycle must be broken.

Wow, this appeared in my suggested videos and I clicked on it thinking “why not I’m bored”. I have worn labels such as introvert, untalented, unworthy, unimportant, shy, not good enough, and many more. I’ve used these for so long and also used them to perceive myself. I’ve never tried to think of “good” labels. One thing I’ve learned from this video is that we should always focus on our strengths and talents rather than our weaknesses and false identity. This video touched my heart and definitively changed the way I think about myself. Thank you for this wonderful, inspiring, motivational speech. 💛
iEatPastaSometimes I have too worn labels like untalented, unimportant, and not good enough
I go through the same thing but I mainly chose your comment to say I like you name
U awesome
You literally just described my own experience word for word
can you tell me how it going whit being positief i hope its going wel now after a week
I grew up without my dad. I was raised by my single mother and my two older sisters from a different dad. I always thought there was somthing wrong or he didn't love me because he never called. I only saw him once or twice before I was 10 and I can't even remember what he looked like. But when I was much older my mother, who is an amazing person, told me she left him because he was a drunk or had a major drinking problem. And he tried to come take me back one night when I was visiting my grandparents. He was clearly drunk and aggressive. So I feel now I was alot better off without my dad. But I still love him in an abstract way.
This was a heartbreaking... yet, beautiful heart pounding story! Graciously Thankful for viewing this.
I don’t even remember clicking on this video but I’m glad I did.
Cut my family out of my life permanently 5 years ago. Best decision of my life. I dont stick around and keep getting abused.
Your whole family or?
Alyssa, I did the same thing. It hurt at first. I still cry at night sometimes. But I realized I wasn’t doing it out of spite, I realized I just didn’t have the emotional capacity to deal with their judgment and them interfering with my life in all areas. I decide who comes into my life nowadays, I decide how much I disclose about my life now to anyone. I choose who gets to walk along side me in life now. And if one day I decide to let my family back into my life, they will know my boundaries and they will respect them and I will demand respect from them. Or they will just get cut off, and not just them, anyone who passes my boundaries on purpose is not family/friend nor someone who has your best Interest. Keep sticking up for yourself. I had to do major counseling because of my family. They almost ruined my marriage and my career.
Alyssa Stevens It depends. I did the same thing, and then I came back because I didn’t want the rest of my time on this earth, that I could spend with my family, to be without them. You only have so much time, and there is definitely NO time for pride
@@50shekels Everything you've just said has reminded me of what my grandma has once said to me (when I started to cut off my family and parents out of my life)
"Never let your pride to impoverish you"
Those words made me rethink my life for a long time, I still do sometimes when life is being hard on me
I totally understand. And agree.
This sounds a lot like my father, and to this day my father still hates me.
Sir, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Today I am successful. I am well liked by other people. I am achieving all my dreams. Today I am ...........
