Reading this story made kind of sad. Recently I watched a documentary film about the works of artist Vik Muniz, whose humble origins he says he's never been ashamed of; and, read about Albert Camus' feeling of shame of the shame he felt that his mother was a cleaner, when he was a young boy and attended school with wealthier children. When I saw those two examples it just reinforced how proud I am of mine and how blessed I am to have had and still have those two beautiful people in my life. I hope sometime you can appreciate your parents for what they are and not be ashamed of them for not being who you want them to be.
