Fathers

“William Shakespeare wrote in his work "The Merchant of Venice," a classic quote saying that the burden of the father's sins will be borne by the son: if this is true, then let us suggest that the father's wish is transferred to the son as well- and it can only push hard towards life, every minute and every step, every word and every thought, with the breaths separating and defining... I have said it again, and I am sure of it, that science cannot answer the question "What should I do with my life?" It is our job, as fathers, to help our children answer this riddle question without us answering it for them...”
