THE TRUE GIFTS OF LIFE - THE ABSORBENT MIND-

THE CHILD IN THE FAMILY.

The child.
An innocent being.
Untouched of bias at birth.
In those first few weeks of life, what stands out is the incredible power being given to the child - unintentionally.
That untouched, pure ABSORBENT MIND.

Absorbing.
Spongin up.
Swallowing every single thing surrounding him.

Every smell.
Every sound.
Every taste.
Every touch.
Everything his eyes see.

Absorbing.
Absorbing

Close your eyes and imagine that innocent little one and imagine what the Environment sounds like.

Loud radio and television noise
Loud sounds of the sound Malls.
Loud sounds of all the ongoing REELS via the Smart phones.

Loud Loud and Louder
Over stimulating.

Close your eyes and imagine what those tender little eyes are seeing at every waken moment.

Television flash
Smartphone images, REELS and music videos
Ongoing people going by in the Malls, on the streets- all the traffic surrounding him.

Close your eyes and think- what smells surrounds that tender baby.

Aromas
Smells
Of
What? Good Malls
Perfume stores
Public changing toilets

Close your eyes and think
What’s that special little one touching every single day?

The soft toy
The baby rattle
The Smartphone screen

Close your eyes and imagine what that precious precious little one tastes every single day.
Processed fruit in squashy tubes
Take out chicken bites
Processed chocolate milk
Processed cup cake icing
Processed processed processed

That ABSORBENT MIND.

Where the brain is triggered and the learning is processed and the five senses stores the experiences for life.

Where the brain absorbs.

And the child develops.

And continues in this way.

THAT ALL ABSORBING MIND.

Where that precious one could be smelling the fresh air of the forests and farms and fields and meadows

And eyes could see the beauty of nature in trees and blossoms and farm animals or birds in the trees that sing and chirp all day.

And those sensitive ears could hear the braying of a donkey in the open field ; or the moos of the cows somewhere grazing on the farm.
Or the buzzing sounds of the insects dancing amongst the flowers in the garden.

Those precious moments of life.

Absolutely precious

THE ABSORBENT MIND.

NO PROCESSED JUNK.

Let them taste the real taste of freshly picked apples; and the first sour taste of lemon.
Let them taste the fresh taste of herbs and vegetables out the gardens or straight from the market.
Taste the fresh water trickling down the streams.
Peas, potatoes, pumpkin, peaches all dripping with juices down the chin.

THAT ALL ABSORBING MIND.

What do we want to gift those precious little ones?

What do we want them to absorb?

What is it that we wish to fill their souls?

Think.

Choose wisely.

Perception

Differentiation.

Utmost care of a PARENT.

CHOICES WE MAKE.

(It’s not about toys)

IT’S ABOUT GENTLE CARING AWARENESS OF THE GIFTS OF LIFE.

Thank you teachers. 🧡

The training of the teacher is something far more than ideas. It includes the training of character. It is the preparation of the spirit.
