2 Feb 2005 @ 00:18 by vaxen : Thanks Gerald... 2 Feb 2005 @ 01:07 by jerryvest : Designated Leaders I am sure that our grandchildren are in for some great challenges. God must know that we've had our hands full. I have much faith and trust in these next generations--why count them out? I believe that our grandchildren will be well prepared, able, and experienced to do what it takes. I am hopeful that we can lighten their burden, but then, that is why we are here, I think? 4 Feb 2005 @ 16:49 by dempstress : The best way to ensure their preparedness is to give them confidence in themselves, as well as a sense of right and wrong. What can help that more than the love, support, time and attention of a caring grandparent? I know how important that was to me. 4 Feb 2005 @ 16:51 by martha : Thank you Gerald for the above essay. I think it is very important for people to stay focused on the positive. By doing all those wonderful activities you are teaching your grandchildren to stay in touch with their spirit. This is the best lesson they will ever learn in life. One can spend time dwelling on all the ills of the world or one can make the choice to to keep in touch with one's own spirit and set the example for the world. I don't agree with Vaxen and his comment but I do respect his view. Each of us is the light, each of us holds the energy to bring positive change into the world. Each moment we have the choice to walk the talk. You are on the positive path with the one's you love so keep up the great work. 4 Feb 2005 @ 22:28 by jerryvest : The best way Caroline, I often wonder, while playing with my grandkids, if we have always been together, even in another time. I feel as though we are such good friends with unconditional love. I know that some say that we can always turn them back to their parents and that is what makes our relationships so positive, but I think there is more to it than that. Amazing might be the best thing I can think of. 4 Feb 2005 @ 22:40 by jerryvest : Staying Focused Thank you Martha for those kind words of wisdom. Staying focused and being positive is such a good lesson for our next generations. I'm sure that children get an abundance of the negative aspects of life on tv and in school. It is so great to be with people when they positive, energized, curious and happy. I've noticed that when I walk across our campus and I am upbeat and feeling this way, others do take notice and greet me as though I am their best friend--makes my heart beat loudly. 6 Feb 2005 @ 21:32 by astrid : Very valid points Jerry! Thanks! 6 Feb 2005 @ 21:35 by skookum : what a precious child you are so fortunate to have them near you Jerry. Dance, sing, drum, rejoice...send it out...I agree.
