En god bekjent av meg hadde dette diktet på facebook profilen sin. Jeg syntes det var så vakkert og sånn en god på minner at jeg poster det her til felles glede.

 

If I Had My Child to Raise Over Again

 

 

If I had my child to raise all over again,

I’d finger-paint more, and point the fingers less.

I would do less correcting and more connecting.

I’d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.

 

I would care to know less and know to care more.

I’d take more hikes and fly more kites.

I’d stop playing serious, and seriously play.

I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.

 

I’d do more hugging and less tugging.

I’d build self-esteem first, and the house later.

I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.

I’d teach less about the love of power, And more about the power of love.
