Why Write "Dad's Letters?"
Dad’s Letters
by Kyle Mast, CFP®
Letters to my sons on purposeful living.
As of this writing, my sons are ages six, two, and two.
A few years ago, when Randon was eight months old, I began writing “Letters to Randon.” Oh, how time flies.
Now that I have three sons I’ve decided to re-launch the letter writing to all three of my sons.
From long before my sons were born, I have grappled with the idea of wanting to pass along life lessons to my children that have impacted me. Not only that, I have desired to pass these lessons on to them earlier than I learned them myself so that the compounding effect of these ideas will have a greater impact on their lives and, in turn, allow them to have a greater impact on the lives of those around them.
I have long known that my mind only has so much capacity to recall the important things I have learned. So, I hope that in writing them down, they will be easily accessible for my boys and for anyone else who may benefit from them.
My hope is that somewhere in these letters, my sons will find more of me and find something that changes their lives for the better.
