You are over fifty years old and you have a small child. Do you know why elderly parents can have sick children? Scientists explain this by accumulating errors in one’s genes. In fact, it is not about accumulating errors, but upsets. In the faithful and kind man, love and longing for God will accumulate. His descendants will be talented. In the angry, rude and discouraged man, children and grandchildren can be seriously ill. Children are the magnifying glass of parents. You are not upset or rude, but you have always been attached to relationships of human love and to higher kinds of desires. Your baby is talented. The breadth of his desires is great, but you have transmitted to him a great dependence on the superior human aspects.
