BEATITUDES FOR PARENTS

BeatitudesParentsBlessed are the parents who make their peace with spilled milk and with mud; for of such is the kingdom of childhood.

Blessed are the fathers and mothers who have learned laughter; for it is the music of the child’s world.

Blessed and wise are those parents who understand the goodness of time; for they make not a sword that kills growth, but a shield to protect.

Blessed and mature are they who without anger can say no; for comforting to the child is the security of firm decisions.

Blessed is the gift of consistency; for it is heartsease in childhood.

Blessed are they who accept the awkwardness of growth; for they are aware of the constant perilous choice between marred furnishings and damaged personalities.

Blessed are the teachable; for knowledge brings understanding and understanding brings love.

Blessed are the men and women who, in the midst of the unpromising mundane, give love; for they bestow the greatest of all gifts to each other, to their children, and— in an ever-widening circle— to their fellowmen.

— Marion Kinneman
