"Jason's Heritage"
by
Thom Atkins

The writing on the stone is a list of the do’s and don‘ts we as men grew up with. Even though some have changed, they are still embedded in the very core of our being.

Text:
OH, MY SON, THOU SHALT BE STRONG. THOU SHALT NOT WEEP.
THOU SHALT NOT SHOW EMOTION.
THOU SHALT COMPETE, AND WIN!
THOU SHALT NOT TRUST THY BROTHERS. THOU SHALT WEAR NEITHER PURPLE NOR LAVENDER NOR BE UNMANLY.
THOU SHALT EARN MUCH MONEY, FOR THEN THOU SHALT BE SUCESSFUL.
THOU SHALT TOUCH NEITHER THYSELF NOR THY BROTHERS FOR PLEASURE. THOU SHALT BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY. THOU SHALT SHOW RESPECT FOR THY ELDERS.
T. Atkins '72
