I am reflecting on the upheaval of vital institutions (as well as horrific ones) and humanitarian values all of which prompt my awareness and fear of the human forces of destruction and fallibility. I will wish for resolution and re-emergence. The phoenix comes to mind. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Laurence.

Let's be clear: I am not!! Auntie T. begged me to allow her to be published on this blog, and when I told her, that I had to think about it, she bribed me. So you know, what's left for you to do to get published too! Or you can use the comments section... Disclaimer: I have been asked if I was Auntie T. Let’s be clear: I am not!!

I attended a seminar last night about communicating with your "Tweens." The clinical psychologist said that it is the parent's actions that have an effect on our kid's self perception, esteem and ultimately values. Be careful what you say or what you do. It's not so much the intention that you communicate it's your actual behavior. In the case of your passage, our fallibility and the importance of forgiveness are good lessons to teach our children.
