To always be honest and stand for the truth. No matter how uncomfortable it sounds. No matter who stands with you or against you. No matter if they hate or love U for it.
And to never be defeated. This life is amazing. My father has an indomitable spirit. He maintains his joy in the face of true circumstances and loves life with every part of himself. I haven't met a man with as much courage.
He taught me that love and truth are the same things and it takes courage to live in both. That's why I abhor cowards. He laughs in the face of despair daily. If I grow up to be a fraction of the person my dad is, then I'll be better than the majority of people in this world.
I'd die for my dad.
