Default YOU Decide

When both my boys wanted to join the Navy, I told them that if that was what they wanted then:

1) Don't let anyone talk you into it, if your not sure that's what you want.

2) Don't let anyone talk you out of it, if that's what you want.

3) Your life, your decision.

They are both now retired from the Navy and proud of it and I am proud of them for following their hearts. They both now have college degrees and new careers, as well.
