    In middle life, the human back is spoiling for a technical knockout and will use the flimsiest excuse, even a sneeze, to fall apart.

    Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. To a man laboring under calamity, the heat of his own fire hath sadness in it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There is one thing you and I as parents cannot do, not do we want to do if we really think about it, and that’s control our children’s will—that spirit that lets them be themselves apart from you and me. They are not ours to possess, control, manipulate, or even to make mind.
    Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
