Hi, Galen, You don't know, enraizar means to root in English. It is a small tribute to my roots, to my parents and grandparents. I also believe that we are partly influenced by our past (I mean family) and partly by our decisions. I liked to know a little more about your grandfather, your relationship with him, and how important he has been in your life.
Best regards.
I think it's a very important relationship, grandparents, as they often treat the grandchild differently than the parents treat their own child...There's still discipline and all, but it's different, and that allows a great opportunity to learn and develop differently; that's how it was with me anyway. I wish I'd met my dad's dad but he died before I was born.
I think the same thing, for my part I did not know my maternal grandmother. It was a geberation that lived very hard times and my grandmother died of "weakness" (for lack of food). However her presence has always been in the family, that is my experience, so I believe that the grandparents we did not know are also a great influence in our lives.
