A rich ma n's son was graduating college.

For months, the son was asking his father for a new car, k nowing that his father had
more tha n enough money.

When gra duation day came, the you ng man's father called him into the study. The
father ha nded him a wrapped gift and congratulated him about his graduation and
his achievement.

Looking disappointed, the son opened the gift to find a lovely, leather bou nd
journal, with the young man's name embossed on the cover. He angrily raised his
voice, threw down th e journal and stormed out.

The young man had not seen his father since graduation day. He became su ccessfu l
and wa s wealthy lik e his father, with a beautifu l home and family. He came to
realize his father was aging and it may be time to put the past behin d them.

Just then, he received a message that his father had passed, and he had to return
home to take care of the estate.

As the mourning son regretfully returned home, he began searching throu gh his
father's important papers and saw that still new jour nal, just as he had left it.

He opened it, and as he flipped through the pages a car k ey dropped from the back
of the journal.

A dealer tag was attached to the key that read "Paid in full. Wherever this car takes
you , write about it to remember it forever. Love, Dad"

Moral of the Story
