The Importance of Love
Real love doesn't come from a place of judgement or arrogance. Instead, love is humble but powerful. Your parents have laid the foundation for your heart to learn, to grow, and to share that love with the world. You are a naturally caring person, and are always emotionally ready to share your love with others. People are naturally drawn to you, because they know you're caring and kind!
An Open Heart
Your parents have taught you that the most important part of life involves giving to other people. When you share with the folks in your circle, you are making the world a much better place. You are also getting in return the good feeling that comes with being generous and kind. Few people learn this lesson early in life, but by now you can be proud of your abilities!
A Sense of Humor
In your mind, loving is eternally connected with laughing. Even if you're having the worst day ever, you can look around for the humor in your situation. Chances are good that you'll often find it, too. You can also use this gift very wisely in order to resolve conflict, and to lift up the spirits of those around you as well. This is a great quality to have!
Common Sense
Common sense is like a rare gem these days. It's impossible to find, and must only come to us through sheer luck. Fortunately, your upbringing has given you much more common sense than most people have been given. Cherish your special talent, and don't be afraid to share it with others by helping out when they need a bit of advice.
Faith
Life hasn't always turned out amazing for you, but that's OK. Your parents have taught you the lessons that involve being persistent, going after what you feel is important, and always believing in yourself. You are a spiritual person with a great deal of determination. Keep that faith in yourself, in others, and in the world strong -- it'll help you through the tough times and make the great times even better!
Hardship
Life can be tough, and everyone knows it. Sounds like you may have had a particularly rough time growing up. However, the positive side to a difficult childhood is that you've learned that life doesn't always turn out to be perfect, and also to be thankful for the parts that are going well. Here's to better days ahead!
