Two gifts for Nina: Roots and Wings

A few weeks ago, a father told me that when he became a parent, his father reminded him that parents must give their children two things: roots and wings. Give them roots to keep them grounded through tough times. Give them wings to soar above everything, explore new worlds and fly farther than we ever did.



I think that this is important for most parents to remember….


I love my parents for having given me both.

Hey Nina, I will try my best.

  1. Hi Mark- are you California Mark from couchsurfing?? I am trying to get in touch with as many couchsurfers as possible to set up some interim communications net since the crash – apologies if i have the wrong person or if you are not interested – if you are interested in reconnecting with your people on couchsurfing or are willing to help spread the word (I’m setting up some approaches now), please email me!

    Thanks and all the best (nice weblog too!)
    Valerie
