Always fall in with what you're asked to accept. Take what is given, and make it over your way. My aim in life has always been to hold my own with whatever's going. Not against: with.

Creed of the United States Coast Guardsman (written by VADM Harry G. Hamlet, USCG)<br /> I am proud to be a United States Coast Guardsman.<br /> <br /> I revere that long line of expert seamen who by their devotion to duty and sacrifice of self have made it possible for me to be a member of a service honored and respected, in peace and in war, throughout the world.<br /> <br /> I never, by word or deed, will bring reproach upon the fair name of my service, nor permit others to do so unchallenged.<br /> <br /> I will cheerfully and willingly obey all lawful orders.<br /> <br /> I will always be on time to relieve, and shall endeavor to do more, rather than less, than my share.<br /> <br /> I will always be at my station, alert and attending to my duties.<br /> <br /> I shall, so far as I am able, bring to my seniors solutions, not problems.<br /> <br /> I shall live joyously, but always with due regard for the rights and privileges of others.<br /> <br /> I shall endeavor to be a model citizen in the community in which I live.<br /> <br /> I shall sell life dearly to an enemy of my country, but give it freely to rescue those in peril.<br /> <br /> With God&rsquo;s help, I shall endeavor to be one of His noblest Works...<br /> <br /> A UNITED STATES COAST GUARDSMAN.

As you go on with life, never regret anything. Everything I&#039;ve ever done has lead me to having for beautiful children. If I had never gotten on my motor cycle that day I would have never met your mother and you wouldn&#039;t be here-dad
