Children learn what they live
If a child lives with criticism, she learns to condemn. If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight. If a child lives with ridicule, she learns to be shy. If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilt If a child lives with tolerance, she learns to be patient. If a child lives with encouragement, he learns confidence. If a child lives with praise, she learns to appreciate. If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice. If a child lives with security, she learns to have faith. If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself. If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he or she learns to find love in the world.


 * A perspective on learning** - In the poem/musing above, I think 'child' can be replaced with 'fully fledged human'. Learning can be life-long. Transformative and opening experiences are always around the next corner if we choose to engage with supportive communities of people who are open to having our understanding of the world challenged and enriched.
