Day 89: My Upbringing

Hi again,
This post is for yesterday because I was unable to sit at the computer to write this post. Earlier in the day I realized I am thankful for my upbringing. All the good and the bad that happened has helped shape me into the person I am today. My parents taught me the value of money and how important it is to work hard at what you do even if it is something you don't want to be doing but have to do. They didn't spoil me which is something I sometimes wished for not realizing that it would have led me to be a different person-a less thankful person. Something that really stands out is how we only got money that we earned where other kids would get handed money each week regardless of what they did. When I was younger I thought that was unfair but now that I am grown up I see that it taught me the value of money and I appreciated it more because I earned it and it wasn't just handed to me. There is much more but I will leave it at this. Maybe I can touch on it further another time.
