SPIRITUAL
CONNECTIONS
|
On
vacation in Idaho in the summer of 1997, producer Bonnie Bruckheimer
read the Rebecca Wells novel, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood,
and fell in love with it.
She
states, "Everyone's desire to understand their intense childhood
experiences from a position of maturity, to accept that imperfect
relationships can be healed and that life goes on."
It
is on this note that we quote the following:
LOUIS
BROMFIELD (1896–1956)
A child’s suffering can be very real and very deep and all
the worse since a child has neither the wisdom nor the resources
of mature men and women. His misery fills the whole of his world,
leaving no space for other things. He has only emotions with no
cynicism or resignation to dull the edges of his jealousy or suffering.
Those people who think of adolescence as a happy, carefree time
either possess deficient emotions or inadequate memories.
OSCAR
WILDE (1854–1900):
Children begin by loving their parents. As they grow older they
judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
DOROTHY KNOLTE:
Children learn what they observe.
If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn and be
judgmental.
If children live with hostility, they learn to be angry and fight.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to be shy and withdrawn.
If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
If children live with tolerance, they learn to be patient.
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
If children live with praise, they learn to appreciate.
If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
If children live with acceptance and friendship, they learn to
find love in the world.
