6. To my Son: Never give up

 Things will get hard!

 Your life will include hardships and struggle constantly. Everyone's does. There will be times where you don't feel like you are getting what you deserve or life is throwing you a bunch of curveballs. It will be an easy thing to want to stop trying and give up. DO NOT GIVE UP. 

You didn't come this far, to only come this far. All your life you have been working towards this moment, and the next moment in your life. And you have done and accomplished so much. Often when things seem the most helpless is when your spirit will shine through and you'll get what you deserve, but only if you keep trying. If you stop trying you will get what you deserve as well. 

 Keep moving forward, little by little, day by day, and you will achieve what you want, I promise. If you give up, you admit defeat... you admit to those who doubted you or wanted you to fail, that they were right.  

This will happen multiple times over the course of your life. I am 41 as I write this and I'm still battling many hardships. I am almost through though and I have had many chances to give up. I can't give up so I can give you the life you deserve. If I give up I am not giving you the opportunities that you deserve. 

 You are an amazing person. You will go far in life, you have a great work ethic and an even better head on your shoulders, you are caring and funny and helpful in all the right ways. 

 Keep moving forward and life will work out fine. 

 Love you so much, 

Dad
