Good Morning All,

I came across this story and had my son's read it. I then asked them if they sometimes felt like the young man in the story. One of my son's said yes!!!!!!!!

Ask your kids!!!!

Who You Are Makes a Difference

One night a man came home to his 14-year-old son and
sat him down. He said, "The most incredible thing happened
to me today. I was in my office and one of the junior
executives came in and he told me that he admired me and
gave me a blue ribbon for being a creative genius. Imagine.
He thinks I am a creative genius. Then he put this blue
ribbon that says 'Who I am makes a difference' on my jacket
above my heart. Then he gave me an extra ribbon and asked me
to find somebody else to honor. As I was driving home
tonight, I started thinking about whom I would honor with
this ribbon and I thought about you. I want to honor you.
"My days are really hectic, and when I come home, I
don't pay a lot of attention to you. Sometimes I scream at
you for not getting enough good grades in school and for
your bedroom being a mess, but somehow tonight, I just
wanted to sit here and, well, just let you know that you do
make a difference to me. Besides your mother, you are the
most important person in my life. You're a great kid and I
love you!"
The startled boy started to sob and sob, and he
couldn't stop crying. His whole body shook, and he looked up
at his father and said, through his broken tears, "I was
planning on committing suicide tomorrow, Dad, because I
didn't think you loved me. Now I don't need to do that."

Have a great day all!!!!!!
