I can especially appreciate your insight at this time in my life. The essence of knowing nothing is forever while we can live our lives unaware of what is right in front of us and who we are in the eyes of others. Looking back this may have been the missing 'awareness ingredient' in the early and formative years of our marriage and young family. Twenty years later resentments have been formed and embedded in 2 of our 3 adult children who aren't interested in hearing about how we as parents did what we thought at the time was for their best. Simply not knowing any differently than how we thought at the time. Our family is intact yet painfully fragmented while seeming pointless. I've also learned that what I think doesn't matter to them. Not a good sign.
