A father gifted his daughter an old car for graduating and asked her to see what people would pay. At a used lot, it was worth $1,000. At a pawn shop, only $100. But at a car club, collectors offered $100,000 — it was a rare Nissan Skyline R34.
Her father said, “The right place values you the right way. If you’re not appreciated, don’t be angry — you’re just in the wrong place. Know your worth.”
A Lesson in Respect
A young man took his frail father to dinner.
The old man spilled food, drawing stares of annoyance. Calmly, the son cleaned him up, combed his hair, and walked him out with dignity. An older diner stopped him: “You left something behind — a lesson for every son, and hope for every father.”
