Today’s edition of Wednesday Words comes to you from my book club’s latest selection, “Annabel” by Kathleen Winter:
“A child’s worry was not like an adult’s. It gnawed deep, and was so unnecessary. Why did people not realize children could withstand the truth? Why did adults insist on filling children with the deceptions their own parents had laid on them, when surely they remembered how it had felt to lie in bed and cry over fears no one had bothered to help you face?”
Perhaps this might mean something to you today.
