To My Daughter,
with Love, on the Important Things in Life Parents try to provide their daughter with insight into the important things in life in order to make her life as happy and fulfilling as possible Parents try to teach their daughter to be good, always helpful to other people to be fair, always treating others equally to have a positive attitude at all times to always make things right when they are wrong to know herself very well to know what her talents are to set goals for herself to not be afraid of working too hard to reach her goals . . .

to laugh and have fun every day to appreciate the beauty of nature to enter into friendships with good people to honor her friendships and always be a true friend to appreciate the importance of the family and to particularly respect and love our elder members to use her intelligence at all times to listen to her emotions to adhere to her values Parents try to teach their daughter to not be afraid to stick to her beliefs to not follow the majority when the majority is wrong to carefully plan a life for herself to vigorously follow her chosen path to enter into a relationship with someone worthy of herself to love this person unconditionally with her body and mind to share all that she has learned in life with this person . . . If I have provided you with an insight into most of these things then I have succeeded as a parent in what I hoped to accomplish in raising you If many of these things slipped by while we were all so busy I have a feeling that you know them anyway One thing I am sure of, though I have taught you to be proud of the fact that you are a woman equal to all men and I have loved you every second of your life I have supported you at all times and as a parent, as a person, and as a friend I will always continue to cherish and love everything about you my beautiful daughter
