Over the weekend, I was going through an external hard drive from my college days to clean things out and back up old photos. I came across WORKHARD.doc, last modified on May 11, 2006. It said:

Never stop working hard. Mom and dad have worked 1000x harder than you, EVERY DAY of their lives to get you to where you are today. Don’t disappoint them. Don’t let their hard work go to waste. You’re young and have so much opportunity (because of them) and you MUST take advantage of it, to secure your future and theirs. If you want to help them like they’ve helped you, WORK HARD.

I also found this (super low res) image that is probably related. 😂
