Dear Lucille,


Limit the unnecessary violence you intake. The world has it in spades, and it is easy to ingest it with little thought. Its influence is initially subtle--first making you wince. If it is indulged in, your heart will grow heavy. If you normalize it, it will harden you and weaken your sensitivities.


Love,


Daddy

Lucille is my daughter. She is actually one of five children. I merely chose her name because the first letter/song I wrote was to her. This is for each of them. Parenting is a wonder and, at times, overwhelming. You want to teach your children everything, but you don't know everything. This is an attempt to share a few ideas I hope my children will find useful. It is my wish that it will provoke them to be more thoughtful and empathetic.

Empathy is often born of grieving. My brother passed away from suicide in 2018...
