The Magic of Our Forefathers (Paperback)

Paperback. The Magic of Our Forefathers speaks of the hidden gifts of past generations and how they affect our lives and future generations. The author creatively unwraps the revelation of our ability to experience "time travel" through becoming aware of the value of our connection with the older generation. Through personal recollections and short stories, life lessons are revealed and hope-filled strength is given to the reader to overcome life's challenges. Basic principles regarding work ethic and walking through adversity are discussed as part of the journey. A few excerpts: "Once her stories were sewn into the hearts of her children and grandchildren, there was an assurance that her deposits would bring a return long after she was gone. I had stepped into her past, and she could step into my future. An indescribable intermingling of two separate lives with separate experiences could come together and melt into one, bringing two different time periods together, and through that union, my children and grandchildren would receive great wealth. The wealth of knowledge." "We hide our hearts just enough to avoid pain. But it's in laying our hearts bare, being willing to love with honesty and transparency, that the awakening comes. The willingness to feel pain makes one alive in areas that would otherwise remain dormant. There is a raw, indescribable awareness of being alive that comes through the pricking of the heart, and the irony is in its ability to bring life when you feel that you will not survive its sting." "The trials and challenges of previous generations are often overlooked, but when we face the fire ourselves, suddenly, we find our hearts spiraling in an immense gratitude and unforeseen strength from those generations that pushes us forward, into the arms of hope."
