Theodore Roosevelt famously said,
“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”
But how? How do we as parents give our sons the chance for glorious triumphs?
Break free of the tyranny of screens! Go outdoors, and teach your son to test his mettle against a lofty mountain peak, a wicked fastball, or paddling a canoe down a winding river in the early morning mist.
Rescue him from the gray twilight, and teach him to truly live!
