...what do we teach our children

[Guest guest]

" Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a

moment that will never be again And what do we teach our children? We

teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of

France. When will we also teach them what they are?

 

We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a

marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has

never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever

fingers, the way you move.

 

You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the

capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can

you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel?

 

You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its

children. "

 

Pablo Casals (1876-1973)

Spanish Cellist
