simple giving our-society
Life is deep and simple, and what our society gives us is shallow and complicated.
song children father
It's not always easy for a father to understand the interests and ways of his son. It seems the songs of our children may be in keys we've never tried. The melody of each generation emerges from all that's gone before. Each one of us contributes in some unique way to the composition of life.
children believe skills
I don't believe that children can develop in a healthy way unless they feel that they have value apart from anything they own or any skill that they learn. They need to feel they enhance the life of someone else, that they are needed. Who, better than parents, can let them know that?
children independent people
Children who have learned to be comfortably dependent can become not only comfortably independent but also comfortable with having people depend on them. They can lean, stand, and be leaned upon, because they know what a good feeling it can be to feel needed.
different problem knots
Often, problems are knots with many strands, and looking at those strands can make a problem seem different.
i-like-you children unique
This is what I give. I give an expression of care every day to each child, to help him realize that he is unique. I end each program by saying, 'You've made this day a special day by just your being you. There's no person in the whole world like you. And I like you just the way you are.' And I feel that if we in public television can only make it clear that feelings are mentionable and manageable, we will have done a great service.
hope-and-faith enormous declaration
To say that you are being carried is a declaration of enormous faith and hope.
sight anxiety would-be
If the grain of wheat could know fear, it would be paralyzed with anxiety at the thought of being dropped in the ground, covered over, put out of sight, doomed to inactivity, yet what a glorious harvest awaits it!
letting-go money giving
Feelings about money -- saving and spending, holding back and letting go -- start very early in our lives. Stingy people have often been forced to give when they were very, very young, when they weren't ready. And generous people have often been really appreciated when they were very young.
wish able energy
When we're able to resign ourselves to the wishes that will never come true, there can be enormous energies available within us for whatever we CAN do.
people feels puzzles
It's the people we love the most who can make us feel the gladdest ... and the maddest! Love and anger are such a puzzle!
important discovering persons
I hope that you're learning how important you are, how important each person you see can be. Discovering each one's specialty is the most important learning.
today
You bring all you ever were and are to any relationship you have today.
important moments persons
One of the most important things a person can learn to do is to make something out of whatever he or she happens to have at the moment.
