Sometimes when the beach is full of dry seaweed, they enjoy themselves rolling on it until their whole body is covered with brown seaweed. As the seaweed sticks to their bodies, they imagine themselves turning into a particular character and run after each other. They laugh heartily as their father comes up with a jolly idea to further cheer them up. Then, they all run and jump into the sea to get rid of all the seaweed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They continue to play in the sea and the siblings either throw a ball to each other, splash water or roll each other over the lilo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One day the father said to his children, \u201cToday we are going to play a different game with pebbles.

Then, we will \u2018let go\u2019 of the pebbles into the sea as a sign of forgiveness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the brothers grabbed a small pebble in his hand and thought of the instance when his brother had taken his toy truck and left it behind him in the grass.

Although this was a hard thing to do, she managed to let go of the pebble into the sea as a sign of forgiving them. \u2018Splash\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another brother grabbed a large pebble in his hand and thought of someone in his class who had blamed him for stealing his pencil case when in fact he had not. So he held the pebble in his hand for some time. Then he let it go into the sea as a sign of forgiving his friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another sibling took a pebble and thought about her transition to a new school. At first no one wanted to accept her in class or play with her, so she had to stay on her own. Now that things were better, she was ready to forgive them, so she let go of her pebble into the sea too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ryan, the eldest of the siblings, found a quiet place further down the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As he sat on the pebbles, he thought of the moments when he felt isolated by his parents in order to give their attention to their new baby. In silence he grabbed a pebble, held it in his hand and asked God to help him not to feel left out and to better understand that the newborn needed lots of attention. He then let go of the pebble into the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the game was over, the parents and the children came together again. They shared how they felt while letting go of the pebbles into the sea as a sign of forgiving those who hurt them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, they thanked God for spending an amazing evening together and for the sense of discovering something new as a family.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-tab kt-tab-inner-content kt-inner-tab-3 kt-inner-tab_20ee28-cd\"><div class=\"kt-tab-inner-content-inner\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tieni un Ciottolo e Lascialo Cadere<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abPronto o no, ecco che ci vengo!\u00bb, disse papa, mentre Ryan e i suoi fratelli si misero&nbsp; a correre per nascondersi dietro i muretti a secco e gli alberi.

A volte quando la spiaggia \u00e8 piena di alga marina, si divertono a rotolarsi sopra finch\u00e9 tutto il loro corpo non ne sia interamente coperto. Mentre l\u2019alga marina s\u2019appiccica al loro corpo, s\u2019immaginano divenuti personaggi specifici e si rincorrono a vicenda. Ridono di gusto ogniqualvolta al loro padre viene un\u2019idea geniale per rallegrarli ulteriormente. Dopo, tutti si dirigono correndo verso il mare e vi si tuffano per liberarsi dell\u2019alga marina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Una volta nell\u2019acqua non smettono di giocare mentre i fratelli si tirano una palla vicendevolmente, schizzano acqua dappertutto o fanno rotolar l\u2019un l\u2019altro sul materassino da spiaggia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un giorno papa disse ai figli; \u00abOggi faremo un gioco diverso con i ciottoli. Lo chiameremo <em>Tieni il ciottolo e lascialo cadere<\/em>. E questo quel che faremo: andremo tutti al bordo dell\u2019acqua, ci sediamo sui ciottoli mentre manteniamo la distanza gli uni dagli altri per non ostacolarci a vicenda. Poi, ognuno di noi piglier\u00e0 un ciottolo, lo terr\u00e0 fortemente nelle mani e penser\u00e0 a parole e azioni con cui altri ci hanno ferito. Poi, lasciamo cadere i ciottoli nel mare come segno di perdono\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uno dei fratelli afferr\u00f2 un ciottolino nella mano e pens\u00f2 a quella volta che suo fratello gli aveva preso il suo camion giocattolo e l\u2019aveva dimenticato nell\u2019erba. Nonostante fosse arrabbiatissimo con suo fratello, era pronto a dimenticare questo e a perdonarlo. Perci\u00f2 gett\u00f2 il ciottolo nell\u2019acqua come segno di perdono: <em>splash<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sua sorella prese un ciottolo lucente e si ricord\u00f2 di alcuni amici suoi che in un primo momento erano sembrati affettuosi, ma in un secondo momento avevano cominciato a prenderla in giro e insultarla. Pur parendole una cosa difficile da fare, riusc\u00ec a far cadere il ciottolo nel mare come segno del suo perdono: <em>splash<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un altro fratello afferr\u00f2 un ciottolone nella mano e ramment\u00f2 di qualcuno nella classe che lo aveva incolpato di aver sottratto il suo portamatite quando nella realt\u00e0 non era stato lui. Allora tenne il ciottolo nella mano per qualche tempo. Poi lo lasci\u00f2 cadere come segno di perdono del suo amico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un\u2019altra sorella prese un ciottolo e le sovvenne il tempo quando aveva cambiato scuola.

Seduto sui ciottoli, ricordava quei momenti in cui si sentiva trascurato dai suoi genitori che davano maggiore attenzione al loro neonato. In silenzio afferr\u00f2 un ciottolo, lo tenne nella mano e chiese a Dio di aiutarlo a non sentirsi escluso, e a comprendere meglio che i neonati hanno bisogno di maggiore attenzione. Poi lasci\u00f2 cadere il ciottolo nel mare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Terminato il gioco, genitori e figli si ritrovarono insieme. Si narrarono a vicenda le loro emozioni quando lasciavano cadere i ciottoli nel mare come segno di perdono verso coloro che li avevano feriti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alla fine, ringraziarono Dio per una
