Advice and reflections from a father to his daughter, to be taken or left, but always given from the Heart.
Blake
To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. William Blake, from "Auguries of Innocence"

Where Things Come From
Yesterday, on the Plaza, we got you a small bracelet with lots of tiny rocks and gemstones from a nice woman selling her family's jewelry. She told you that her 14 year-old grandson, Dayne, had made the bracelet. It is easy in the modern world to forget that things are made by other people when everything is packaged and sterilized for mass consumption. Like going to the grocery store with Papa to make dinner, remember that the best things in life are crafted with care.
