lord byron poem pleasure in the pathless woods

At times I heard them share childhood memories and while most were idyllic, I heard a sprinkle of cringe worthy moments that gave me pause.

The problem was…all was not well and they knew it. Sadly, being in a volatile relationship that was less than loving, I often over compensated for this lack by creating an “all is well” mentality.

Upon reflection, I see these words demonstrate the ebb and flow of parenting in many ways. Everything does not need to be analyzed, planned and accounted for.
