It's been a few days since I have been able to post. I know I said it would be a daily Blog, but sometimes things come up.
OK, so I'm not one for sappy things, but I saw something recently that made me really think. Take a look:
"If I had to raise my child over again..."
If I had to raise my child over again,
I'd fingerpaint more, and point my finger less...
I'd do less correcting, and more connecting...
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes...
I would care to know less, and know to care more...
I'd take more hikes, and fly more kites...
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play more...
I would run through more fields, and gaze at more stars...
I'd do more hugging, and less tugging...
I would be firm less often, and affirm much more...
I'd teach less about power, and more about the power of love...
Time goes by too fast...
Pass it on -
