I really want this blog to be about my kiddos and their lives, but I really feel the need to put a few things in print in order to remember Father Tasler. As I mentioned before, Father has been really influential in my formation in a few areas. Two specific things he taught me have really molded my philosophy of how to live life.
I must have been about 10, and remember Father asking me, "What is the purpose of life?". A little bit of time and a bit of guidance helped me get to the fact that this earth is all about getting to heaven. To a ten year old, that's huge. It's funny how you remember things like that.
In marriage prep, one thing Father taught Luke and I was that in family life, the health of the marriage has to be the first priority to create a strong foundation for the family and the development of children. This was really revelatory to Luke and I, but over time we have seen the wisdom of these words and have tried to live them in our own lives.
Thanks for your nuggets of wisdom, Father.
