Seeking Inner Stillness
“Providing a space for the inner stillness a child needs to contemplate the beauty of life—their very own encounter with the spirit of the Primavera—is what grandparents are ‘for.’ And when I use the words inner stillness, I’m talking about more than moments of silence. I’m talking about being at peace within one’s self, carefree play, a sense of security, of being loved; of always having arms nearby to swoop you up if you fall; a memory bank full of beautiful things, ideas, and experiences, tastes and smells, sounds and feelings to which a loving grandparent opened the door. A grandchild has the chance to start where I left off. I can work to pass on the best, not the depressions and regrets but the moments of light and grace. I can choose to break the generational curse. You can too.”
