For the Parents


My soul is soothing

UNIVERSALNESS: We all look forward to moving away from our parents, but we aren't ducks to water necessarily, we are only prepared for what we may have a feeling for ahead of time, and most of us learned someway or somehow by failure.  And maybe some of us find out we are more like our parents than we want to admitt.  Whether if it as simple as doing your own taxes, or maybe raising a family, we are only as smart as our experiences allow us to be.  And maybe there has been friction with the ones who raised and brought you in to the world, and may have blamed your parents for not teaching you enough, or in another spectrum, for being too overbearing.  But when you do you taxes, and when your kids raise up, you are that parent now. Your kids will think the same towards you, and you will rediscover a connection with your parents- You're human creators, and you will realize that when you were young you were in the way of yourself, you had the power to do things in your preferred manner when you learned through it all: faults, failures, experiences, and triumphs. And when that day comes where you realize you are in the driver seat, but that driver seat comes with a stirring wheel, you'll feel a bit of peaceful freedom.  A peaceful freedom to forgive or let the past rest and appreciate them for who they were to you, as you want your kids to appreciate you. 

We tend to want to be in the driver seat, but we forget, that we can not steer without a steering wheel.
