With all the things that
came out of this years
Super Bowl.. one stands
out.. and if it doesn't
become the new buzz word,...
it sure the heck
should be.
Those words were uttered by
Russell Wilson's
father.. not on Sunday..but
years ago.. And
every parent...EVERY PARENT
should say those
words to their children. To
drum it into their minds.
Russell Wilson, was not your
ideal football player.
Words like too short, not
enough weight were just
some of the words said about
him as he played for
high school and
college.. But his father's words
drove this young man on..
What great words did this
father tell his son?
WHY NOT YOU?
Seems innocent enough.. When
his father
saw his son was being
challenged in life.. he
said those words.. And when
Russell made it
to the big time leagues,
again his father challenged
Russell. You can go to the
Super Bowl with this.
After all.... WHY NOT YOU?
Thank you, Mr. Wilson for
saying those words.
I am sure there are many,
many parents who
have encouraged their
children, just as you did.
But you put it so
simply.
What makes these words even
stronger is...Mr.
Wilson passed away about 3
years ago. Yet,
he had a front row seat on
Sunday, looking down
as his son.. as he filled
those words...
YES, let's shout those words
to the sky.. embed
them in our children..
challenge your child...
WHY NOT YOU? WHY NOT YOU.. IN DEED.
