I was running out of answers... So I blurted out, “Well… I’m not working construction for YOU all my life!!”
“That’s perfectly fine, son! As a matter of fact, I DON’T want you working construction for me your whole life… that’s the whole PURPOSE of this conversation! Then his tone got serious and his words slowed down as he said to me,
"But… that’s not what I asked you… I asked you, what are you going to do?” I thought I knew what I was going to do, but I needed his help...
In this video I tell story of the heated conversation I had with my dad after my first semester of college. I dive into the reasonings behind my thought process, what I based my decision on, and how I arrived at it.
I also talk about some of the many "gems of wisdom" found in this incredible song and how they may be applied to our lives.

In the Gag Reel after the video, I noticed that I misspoke saying that this event happened 24 years ago. After hearing and seeing it, to my horror, I realized that happened actually happened 34 YEARS AGO! Oh my, where did it all go? I've managed to capture some of the time in these previous videos, and I'll continue to try to capture many more as this project continues.
Everyone has a story! They're all different, unique, and beautiful! What's yours?
As always, thanks for reading, thanks for watching.
Background music was provided by Mm Roughneck, downloaded through Pond 5. Thank you. As I obviously cannot play the song I'm talking about, I try to have background music that I feel captures the feeling and spirit of the song and subject matter that I'm talking about, whether I create it or download it.
