O knihe
Randi Becker Walls was in her early
thirties. It was the 1980s. It was a special occasion and
she was attending an intimate family gathering at a
relative's apartment. She hadn't seen her Aunt Lil and Uncle
Hy for several years. They exchanged hugs and kisses.
Preempting the start of any normal conversation, her Uncle
Hy made this pronouncement:
"You had the worst,
most terrible childhood that anyone could ever have had"...
thanks Uncle Hy, she thought, for reminding me. Somehow, she
made it through that "family" gathering that day. She was
used to it. That is how it usually went. Always someone,
somewhere, would bring up her less-than-wonderful childhood.
The Ritual of Randi had to be performed before they could be
engaged in any other meaningful type of conversation with
her. But why? After all, she was the one who lived through
those years! And while she was living through them she
didn't always know that it was so bad. Hello??? How about
seeing her some other way, for once, like the fact that she
was now a grown woman with a wonderful career and a mountain
of accomplishments under her belt. Fold Your Arms
and Smile! is her story, the story of not only who
she was, but of who she's become, and includes all the
beautiful parts of her life, as well.
