What is one thing that you dad was right about?

When my brother got the last piece of bacon, what did I say?

When my choice of restaurant was not the final destination, what did I say?

When my youngest brother got have a later curfew that I did at that age, what did I say?

Yep, "That's not FAAAAIIIIIRRRRR."

And what did Dad reply each and every time?  "Life isn't fair."

Well, ain't that the truth.

I HATED hearing those words when I was a kid.  Absolutly hated them.  Life should be fair ~ translate: I should get my way.  And those words meant that I was not, under any circumstances, getting my way.  Frustrating, yet probably one of the soundest pieces of truth ever received. (once I decided to receive it)
