Episode # 28 – Meet the parents

A very important ingredient of the journey are your parents. If you think of all the coincidences that had to take place so you could be born in this world it’s nothing short of a miracle, without them you wouldn’t exist.

I am back in Holland for an 8 day vacation/business trip and I’m spending it at my parent’s house. Not only does that bring back a lot of memories but it also made me think about the role my parents have in this phase of my journey. I’m aware that I don’t have an unlimited supply of these visits and I’ll never know when it will be the last time I’ll see them.

I’m grateful they are still alive and this visit also gave me a change to reflect on their role in my life and the effect it had on me. Although this episode may come across as a bit of topic I believe that it’s important to take a moment and think about your parents. What role did your parents play in your life? In what way did they inspire you to become the person you are today? Are there things you are proud of when you think about your parents? Whatever the answers may be, our parents have a big influence in the person we become later in life.

Much love,
