A Soulful Journey

A college student wrote home, "Am without friends or funds." His dad wrote back, "Make friends." A big part of growing up is learning how to solve problems on your own.  When you have done this you have made it.

In a small college town, a tavern frequented by students ran the following ad in a campus paper during the days before Parent’s Weekend: “Bring your parents for lunch Saturday.   We’ll pretend we don’t know you.” The ad was challenged by the campus chaplain who put a revision of it on the campus bulletin board.   It read: “Bring your parents to services.   We’ll pretend we know you well.” -C.
