Which Will It Be?

from The Daily Dad

“In his Broadway show, Bruce Springsteen—whose songs have often focused on the painful legacy of our parents—explained the choice that all of us have as fathers. “We are ghosts or we are ancestors in our children's lives,” he said at the beginning of Long Time Comin’. “We either lay our mistakes, our burdens upon them, and we haunt them, or we assist them in laying those old burdens down, and we free them from the chain of our own flawed behavior. And as ancestors, we walk alongside of them, and we assist them in finding their own way, and some transcendence.”Learn how you can be an ancestor, and not a ghost to your children, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
