Unlike the father cited in yesterday's blog, Marash Girl's father always encouraged his children with the following words:
"Today is the first day of the rest of your life!"
No matter what mistakes they had made, no matter what how discouraged they may have felt, those words encouraged his children to continue to strive, to continue to thrive!
How he had learned this lesson, where he had heard these words? Were the words a translation from the Armenian? Were they words his Yankee teachers had taught him in Watertown? Marash Girl will never know, but what she does know is the truth of the words. Read them and feel encouraged:
"Today is the first day of the rest of your life!"
