Recently I began reading a wonderful book. It was uncanny when I read this quote. Just the other day I had a discussion with a friend. We talked about the intergenerational passing down of behaviors. An individual can make or not make the choice to continue these behaviors or break them.
“I once interviewed a New Age guru who spoke about how unfinished business from ancestors can trickle down to generations twice, even three times, removed. Actions in the present can help to correct the mistakes made in the past. And even if there is no absolution to be had, an understanding may help keep the same mistake from being repeated.” ― Sejal Badani, The Storyteller's Secret
