I grew up in Lakeland, Louisiana, one of 7 children. We all lived on my parents’ farm. At 12, I got a
21
milking cows to help support the family. I did this twice a day — at five in the morning and
22
at two in the afternoon. One Saturday before daylight, I remember
23
to my father and grandfather about having to go milk those cows. It was so tiring. “You know, boy, to work is a
24
,” said my father. I looked at those two men who’d worked harder,
25
I had been told something really important.
Going to college was then
26
for a kid from Lakeland, Louisiana. People in our area mainly lived on farming. “
27

36
to keep a small family alive, which
37
me of my father’s words.
And I came to
38
that people without work are not free. They are
39
of crime, poor health, and depression. People with work can have a home, develop a sense of pride and
40
the good of the community. I don’t think I’ll ever quit working because when we can work, we’re free and we’re blessed.
