There is a song from a musical called Children Will Listen. A wise counsellor told me long ago as I wandered through grief in sorrow, “Your children are watching how you handle this.” I remember her words as if it was yesterday though it was over twenty years ago.
Today as I write this blog the world including our planet, the animals, our children and we who are the adults are experiences pain, suffering and fear. I pray for the children and the animals, and the healing of the earth. My children have watched me and now as adults they are following my path, thinking of others, the children, the animals and the earth’s needs not only themselves. My counsellor was so right. My children were listening and watching so I have hope in a younger generation and prayers without ceasing that all will work with God’s help toward good.
