Mitch, Sharon, and I started life together when Mitch was very young. Hmm, I guess that I was young, too!
Sharon and I would love to become transformed into Southern Italians. We love the land, and the people!
To become a parent or a step parent is often to become ignored, misunderstood, or invisible. To become grandparents to the children of these discontented children is to become an alien being.
I just wanted to give our #1 grandson one final chance to get to know us, before adulthood and irs oppressive responsibility, and the family history and its misunderstanding, kicked into high gear. The hijacking of yet another victim into family Stockholm Syndrome and other folie-a-deuxs, with the subsequent self justified condemnation of the innocent becomes normalized within the spiritually and emotionally disrupted family system..
I am no longer chasing the imsge of a grandfather that I was never allowed to be. I am now the person that God intended for me to be. I had momentary disillusionment, then a feeling of liberation.
Be well, Mitchell, Tony, and Jasper, you are free to be who you are, without no further influence from me parading around as the grandfarher you do not need. My apologies to the family for trying to assume a role that I was never welcomed by the family to accept.
Andiamo avanti!
We also continue to face our ancient and insistent companion on this infinite journey, Morte.
Piano piano troveremo un equilibrio
