The World Needs A Sense Of Worth,

When Our Children See Us Expressing Our Emotions, They Can Learn That Their Own Feelings Are Natural And Permissible, Can Be Expressed, And Can Be Talked About. That's An Important Thing For Our Children To Learn.

What Interests Me So Much About The Characters Of The Bible Is That They Make Mistakes But God Uses Them Anyway, In Important Ways. Nobody's Perfect, But God Can Even Use Our Imperfection.

All Life Events Are Formative. All Contribute To What We Become, Year By Year, As We Go On Growing. As My Friend The Poet Kenneth Koch Once Said, You Aren't Just The Age You Are. You Are All The Ages You Ever Have Been!

And Those Handmade Presents That Children Often Bring Home From School: They Have So Much Value! The Value Is That The Child Put Whatever He Or She Could Into Making Them. The Way We Parents Respond To The Giving Of Such Gifts Is Very Important. To The Child The Gift Is Really Self, And They Want So Much For Their Selves To Be Acceptable, To Be Loved.

I Feel That The Real Drama Of Life Is Never Center Stage, It's Always In The Wings. It's Never With The Spotlight On, It's Usually Something That You Don't Expect At All.
