I remember a couple years back all we wanted was an NIT appearance. Now we’re saying Fire Fred for missing a March Madness berth 😭. Fred has turned this program from being the embarrassment of college basketball to relevant.
“One morning, my mother prepared breakfast after a late night's work. My father offered to fix it but she said she wanted to.
She put a plate of eggs and burnt toast in front of my father.
I immediately noticed, the burnt toast, and I was waiting to see if he was going to complain about it. Instead, my father started to eat them. Smiling, he asked me how I spent my day at school.
My mom apologized to my dad for the burnt toast. I will never forget his response to her:
"Honey, I love burnt toast!"
Later when I went to bed and my dad came over to kiss me goodnight, I asked him if he really liked the burnt toast?
He hugged me and said, "Your mother has had a difficult day and she is really tired. She went out of her way to prepare this meal for us, why blame her and hurt her. Burnt toast never hurt anyone; but words can be very painful!””
We have to know how to appreciate what others do for us, even if it's not perfect, because it's the intention to do well that counts, and no one is perfect.
Husker Nation, you’ve done it.
