Steer

The lessons of the past should steer us towards ensuring lasting legacies for generations yet to be born.

There is a restaurant near my mom's house called The Big Steer. I believe it is called that because they serve steaks and it has a big steer out front. I don't believe it is called that because of anything related to driving.

A movie called The Big Steer could be about a person driving down the road and they see a big steer in the road and steer their car and end up taking road they hadn't intended to take. And then they learn important life lessons or meet important teachers they wouldn't have otherwise encountered. And then, at the end of the movie, they turn to their grandchildren (because by now they are very old and recounting the story to their grandchildren) and say, "That big steer changed my life - and that's no bull."

And everyone would laugh and hug and then the old protagonist would peacefully pass away. The person would be happy to have left their grandchildren with such a nice memory and important laugh lesson.

Only the grandchildren would be scarred because they would be hugging a dead person.

Kids these days. You can't teach them anything.
