Grandmother, a Crone in her own
right, was truly a woman from a
throw back era . . . Perhaps a term
she could have lived with would
be, Wise Woman.
She had amazing innate knowledge.
I know not whether she was born
with it, or if it was acquired. Some
of both, most likely.
It appears she kindly gifted these
traits to her youngest son's daughter
and two granddaughters. As her
granddaughter from her eldest son,
I too was blest to receive her gift;
I am, and will be ever grateful.
I can't help but wonder what is
our responsibility in regards to
this amazing gift?! Obviously,
it could be used in a plethora of
ways. Knowing her, she would
have wanted it to be used only
in the positive realm.
In my own life, I have found this
gift has served me well. I truly
do not believe I could have dealt
with my special, blind brother
without it.
Teaching in a variety of difficult
situations in both Mexico and the
US, I found that her gift aided me
on a daily basis. This was truly a
blessing; make no mistake.
The question that comes to me is,
to whom will I pass on this gift.
It matters, but thus far it has not
been revealed to me.
Methinks there must be great
power in the hereditary . . . bears
pondering . . . I find myself ever
so grateful . . .
You go Gran, I follow in your
footsteps . . .
