[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Do not ask your children to strive,” by William Martin Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives. Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness. Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life. Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears. Show them how to cry when pets and people die. Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand. And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself. [/quote] I want to show my kids the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples, and pears, so I will yearn for them to magically appear in my backyard that I don’t have because we live in an apartment.[/quote] You get it. Lower/middle class kids have to strive. [/quote]
