What is the best advice your father ever gave you?

When I was in the high school football team I was basically set to get serious with this one girl until my father told me this parable about the father bull talking to the son. They’re up on this hill and looking down on a bunch of cows. And the son goes to the father, “Dad, why don’t we run down there and f*** one of these cows?” Now do you remember what the father said? Father says, “Son, why don’t we walk down there and f*** them all?”

That's exactly what I did until senior year until I met this freshman girl, she was the sweetest and best.

There's a lot of good advice. Some of them are:
#1 Don't lend people money unless it's absolutely necessary.
#2 Never get involved with drugs.
#3 Help others, but don't let them take advantage of you. Know your worth.
#4 You'll find out who your real friends are, when you get in a difficult situation.
There's a lot of advice both my parents gave me.

A person is only as good as their word. If you promise someone you're going to do something, do it. If you can't, let them know ahead of time.
