Lessons from Jesse Duke


Recommended Posts

Friday May 11th is the birthday of my hero Jesse Duke.

In honor of him, here's 10 things he's taught me about life.

(I have to give my parents a little credit too)

1) Be reverent. Thank Almighty God for all your blessings.

2) After God, put your family next on your priority list.

3) Be patriotic. Be thankful for the country you live in and grateful to those who helped make your country great.

4) Help others in your neighborhood who need it and take pride in your community.

5) Give people respect if they've earned it and don't expect to be respected unless you've earned it.

6) Work hard. You may not be capable of doing the same things others can but always give it 100%.

7) Be patient and take time to listen. Listen with love in your heart.

8) Be loyal in every way.

9) When you get older you'll be the leader of your family. Take time while you're younger to develop the skills you'll need.

10) Have fun. If you ever get so old that you forget how to have fun, just pop in a DVD that shows Miz Emma Tisdale riding a wheelie on her dirt bike.
