On what a Gentleman Learns from his Mother...

Life is started with the precious sacrifice of your mother, and thus we as gentleman ought to always honor this most important woman.

Yet, our mothers never stops offering us lessons!  Here are a few of the small ones that my mother has shared with me, by verbiage and by example.

1. Life is precious...take care of yourself

2. Patience is the greatest virtue, not on its own, but because of its results

3. Making your bed is starting your day with a clean slate

4. Your family are the only ones who are always there. Never, ever give up on your family.

5. A meal is one person sharing their time and talent with another, and ought to be received as graciously as any other gift

And an extra one from my Aunt (and thankfully not from my mother):

Always wear clean underwear, you never know who'll see them!

To appreciation!
