Dear Reader,
There was a very popular folk song in 1974 titled “Cats In The Cradle.” It was written by Harry Chapin and performed by Cat Stevens. It chronicled the tale of a Dad telling the story of his relationship with his son.
This Dad was probably like many of the parents today, long on good intentions and very short on time. He sang of his busy work schedule and “bills to pay”, but promised that they would get together soon.
Heck, he even tells about getting the boy a gift of a ball but when the son asks if he’ll teach him to throw, Dad says, “Not today – I got a lot to do,” and the boy said, “That’s okay.”
The boy wanted to be just like the Dad, “And said, “I’m gonna be like him, yeah
You know I’m goi
ng to be like him.” Well it was a self-fulfilling prophecy because as the boy grew to adulthood, the tables turned and there was no time left for his Dad.
