Never Stop Learning! The day you stop learning, is the day you stop living!
Our children are like sponges, they can soak everything new into there bodies with wide open eyes and open ears. But, as we ourselves grow older, it becomes more and more difficult to learn, absorb and remember new things.
We gain more knowledge through circumstances, experiences and events happening in our lives and through each others. A child learns from their parents. They can take with them what they have learned with them to their futures, or they can decide not to. The choice is up to them.
Our job is to give them a future that they do not need to make a choice. But a future that nourishes their little souls going forward into the future with knowledge from what we have taught them.
Knowledge doesn’t just come from textbooks, or the internet, or even from teachers, but it comes from experiences and moments we share with our children.
Through good times and even bad times comes knowledge that can only be learned from each other. Focusing on our health and well-being is a learned trait we pass down from generation to generation. If we live happy, successful, healthy lives, then our own children will have that knowledge to live that way also. (At least we hope and pray that they will).
To stop learning is to stop living. Did I already say that? We are never too old to learn new things. We are never too old to learn how to find our health happiness.
We are never too old to teach our children how to live healthy, successful lives.
We are never too old to teach our children right from wrong.
We are never too old to teach our children kindness.
We are never too old to teach our children to do unto others as we would do unto ourselves.
We are never too old to teach our children how to share.
We are never too old to teach our children to help those in need.
We are never too old to teach our children compassion and forgiveness.
We are never too old to teach our children what unconditional love is.
We are never too old to teach our children what true friendship means.
We are never too old to teach our children to reach for the stars and follow their dreams.
We are never too old to teach our children that life may not take them where they want to go but will always take them where they need to go.
We are never too old to teach our children that there will be many ups and downs throughout their lives, but each up and down is a learning experience.
We are never too old to teach our children that life is what you make it, so make it count!
But most important of all is…
… We are never too old to learn and teach “ourselves” all of the above…
