LeeAnna asks:
What lessons from your childhood have most impacted your worldview?
What a great question! I think there are some 'lessons' from childhood that are better discussed with a therapist! I won't go into my um dysfunction lessons here. It is enough to say that I am still learning.
Childhood can be magical. I love that Liliana thinks that little umbrella is just the right size for her. I love her big brother photo bombing too! I am so grateful to have five beautiful grandchildren now! I pray they only know unconditional love from me.
Okay, one lesson from childhood. I am hesitant to call it a lesson though. I am not sure where I learned it. I was the kid that was kind and inclusive of the new kid, the weird kid, the disabled kid, etc. I was the kid who stood up for the underdog even when it got me in trouble. I have always tried to be warm, supportive and welcoming. I am hoping that doesn't sound like bragging.
Comments
sometimes those childhood lessons teach us through negative example how not to be, and firm up how we choose to be instead. I never smoked because I saw a parent drink and smoke to excess... I tried to be kind because I knew what it was like to be around unkind people too...
I'm so glad you're you
