6.  What do you hope your grandchildren (or the next generation) will learn about life?

Tracey Magrann:  Acceptance of people as they are and events as they occur will save a lot of time from being wasted on anger, fear, and depression.  Remember, acceptance of something doesn’t mean you have to like it; as a matter of fact, accepting something implies that you don’t like it!  Unpleasant circumstances have to be coped with eventually, and the end result is always acceptance anyway.  You may as well speed up the process and save yourself a lot of headaches.
