Life isn’t always going to be easy.

For eighteen years I lived with my parents. Mom and dad took care of everything and all I had to do was clean my room. If the laundry was in the laundry room, mom was happy. When I went to college, I got a little more independence, but I still had mom and dad to turn to. I took my laundry home on weekends, and brought back clean clothes when I went back to school. When I graduated, I was suddenly thrust into the real world. I blamed mom and dad for not forcing me to have independence and for my lack of responsibility. I then realized I was the one who depended on them, even though they sent me to a school that was half a state away. I had to figure out for myself that life wasn’t always going to be easy. I quickly realized that I wasn’t prepared for life. I didn’t know what to do with a house. I called dad and asked him if he would walk me through how to change the air filter in the air conditioning unit. He started to laugh and went on a memory trip when he tried to teach me that as a teenager. He told me how to change the air filter and reminded me that I also had to have the HVAC company do regular servicing on the air conditioning and the furnace. I groaned and asked if he could possibly remind me to call the HVAC company? He told me to write it down on the calendar or to set a reminder in my phone.
