Sunday’s Food for Thought : Beyond what we can see today

28 February 2010No Comment

What do you see when you see little children?

Whether we realise it or not, the way we regard little ones will greatly determine how we treat them, consciously and unconsciously.

If we see children as ‘understanding nothing’ and ‘capable of doing little things though they ask about big things’, then we’ll have a tendency to (verbally and non-verbally) trivialise their actions, contributions and thoughts.

Now here’s one food for thought :

A child (or even an adult) who seems incapable of doing many things TODAY can indeed do great things in years to come IF he/she grows and explores, develops and actualises his/her God-given potentials.

And THAT is one good reason for us all to remember to look beyond what our eyes can see today, isn’t it?
