So much in life can hinge upon a single decision. Once made, some choices come with attendant consequences which are difficult to foresee, but which can exert profound effects upon the whole of a person’s life.

For good or for ill, an individual’s permanent record is a partner for life.
What today’s youth tend to forget is that while a permanent record is built by the young, it must be carried by the old.

Stay in school. Stay out of trouble. Don’t throw your life away.
