my inventory is sitting across from me

the shortcomings i have seen in me are instilled in the son sitting aceoss from me……some things i didn’t like about myself i struggled to change……..but not before infecting someone else……it hurts to see my son is just like me and there is little chance i can steer him away from the actions and ideas i portrayed…pains me to know he will learn the hard way….just like his Dad………..so for what it’s worth those children that hear your lies and outburts……watch you shoot from the hip and make others feel uncomfortable because you are ridgid and your opinions are embedded in concrete……..they are soaking it up like a sponge….all the promises they make to themselves not to repeat those mistakes are to no avail…….because that learned behavior is already in place……when you shudder hearing what comes out of their mouth and the tone of their voice……….i hope you feel proud……..you were their teacher……
