Judson – Judsito
Well, my precious grandson, this is a life lesson for grandchildren and a small inspirational letter to a grandson that I hope will stay with you.
I gave this letter to your parents to give to you when they felt it was the right time. This is part of a legacy and life advice I hope will guide your journey.
It is 2024 at the time of this writing and you are in Japan and I am in Oregon. You are being called Judsito. This is part of a motivational family letter across distance and time.
I have no idea as to how old you are now, but the first thing I want to tell you is that you have marvelous parents. They have a great balance of love and an adventurous spirit, and this reflects wisdom from grandparents who understand inspirational parenting and guidance.
They are truly unique, shaped by personal development and mindset that values both love and courage.
They were overflowing with love and excitement when you arrived and that feeling was never diminished, showing deep emotional intelligence and curiosity about life.
I am afraid I won’t be around when you are reading this, but I want you to know that I thought of you often – with great love, as part of self growth and self esteem that comes from family connection.
I take the role of a great grandparent with awe, and a joyful responsibility rooted in character building lessons.
Having lived a long time, there are some things – attitudes – that I want to pass on to you in the hope that they will prove to be of some value to you as you embark on your self improvement journey through life.
Here is an outlook that has shaped my life in many ways and perhaps it will have some influence on yours in your personal development and mindset.
Here are some thoughts on a trait that does not seem to be as common as it should – but if you develop it – you will be led to some interesting destinations in life. This is truly about the importance of curiosity in life.
I am speaking of the trait of CURIOSITY, and developing curiosity in children and adults alike.
In my experience – I have found that curious people make the most enjoyable and interesting companions, reflecting emotional intelligence and curiosity in action.
I was asked once what my favorite ‘thing’ was, and I responded -to be visiting with people I had never met previously – talking about a subject I knew nothing about, and in a place I probably shouldn’t be, which is part of inspirational parenting and guidance through lived example.
It seems that the people who feel compelled to find answers want to learn as much as possible about the people and world around them, which is at the heart of self growth and self esteem.
The curious person in my experience is an open minded individual who does not scoff at different attitudes, beliefs, or perceptions of others. Rather, they are eager to learn more about various subjects either unknown or previously discarded as unacceptable, showing strong character building lessons and personal development and mindset.
And so, Judson, the world is indeed a marvelous and mysterious place, and belongs to the curious who wander and wonder, embracing the importance of curiosity in life and living by inspirational quotes and life wisdom.
You are beginning an amazing journey of discovery and mysteries, a true self improvement journey.
Love
Great Poppa, sharing legacy and life advice
