Dear friends

On the other hand, the children should also learn to respect their
parents' views because of the saying:

Love Your father and Mother as
They are someone who
hold you when you cry,
scold you when you break the rules,
shine with pride when you succeed,
and have faith in you even when you fail...

Nature.

Fun

In youth,  I loved to excel and  run

I shun the fun

And always run and run.

As the speed was increasing,

The true life was decreasing.

The more I run, the more I shun my fun

The family and friends missed me.

Whenever I appeared once in a year,

Mom hugged me and kissed me.

As I advanced in life

I felt what for is all this stress and fuss,

All the day and night I run

And no time for fun.

As I grew wise with age

I wished to enjoy my fun

But alas youthful energy I lacked for fun,

From the window of my room,

I see the young kids play and make fun

Then I remember the days when I could have fun.

But kept on the run.

Nature turned the energy into wisdom;

I got to stop my run and taste the freedom.

From the window of my room, I look outside

And see small kids, singing, dancing and playing.

Now, small kids, their dance, their songs

 are the source of my fun.

Taught in youth, work hard and fun was bad,

I fled from fun

With the age, I stumbled on the truth,

The fun is not for the old but for the youth.

PARENTS

Parents are so afraid of exciting pride and vanity in their children,

by the expression of their love, and approbation,

that a child sometimes goes sad and discouraged.

“There are times when the open expression of a father’s love

would be worth more than church or sermon to a boy.”

EDUCATION

.

It is no use giving children just education, you should give them joy.

“If you want children to grow well, try and give them as much joy as possible.

Merely giving them so-called education, is like putting manure at the roots of a tree which is without sunlight. ‘

The sun is strong, the rain is plentiful and in spite of the goats, the forests grow,

Likewise, in spite of errors of parents and teachers, children flourish.”
