[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6387960, member: 2119"] Living in the shadow of parents working on the farm for years entirely skews your own idea of who you really are. Just because they decided that this or that was a good idea or morally right or wrong doesn't mean we have to follow that indefinitely. It's taken me 50 years to learn this. Dads passing was obviously a sad episode, but now many things, both business and personal, can be seen by me for what they are, rather than skewed by his opinion of them. He wasn't wrong. But his frame of reference was different to mine. So out of a sad time, we emerge with a new refreshing clarity though we still miss those who have departed. [/QUOTE]
