Clarification

Clarification When we said to stand up for what you believe When we said to expect to go far in this world before you leave When we said to trust yourself and your instincts When we said to be honest about what you think When we said to be fruitful and multiply When we said to not lie When we said to be genuine and sometimes suspicious When we said we care about your wishes When we said to expect a lot of yourself and that you’ll go far When we said we believed in you and will always love you for who you are When we said to sing When we said you can do anything We didn’t actually mean you specifically; We meant people in general - Not you.

I suppose we sometimes misinterpret the message, or maybe the messenger wasn't clear enough. Or maybe we just interpreted the message for our own ends Regards Tom
