This is an important lesson to teach your kids. There is so much focus on final results these days that we often forget that just like Life it is not the end that matters - rather it is how you live. Enjoy each moment. Be here Now.
My maternal grandmother passed away last Christmas. She was 92 years old. Whenever we went up to visit her, we would always find some adventure to do. She was basically raised in a bit of adventure herself, with all the jobs that her father would do.
During her funeral, I read a statement that basically told everyone not to remember grandma by her final destination, but by the adventure that happened on the way.
