Out of bad ……comes good. I think this is an exciting wake up call. A lot of New ways of doing things are about to happen. People are thinking…not just existing in a habit that didn’t make sense. This forces us to Change.
I think it has a lot to do with educating our children correctly. To lift these gifted kids and support their idiosincrities and there uniqueness and have them be educated in a way that can and will educates adults. So many kids I think are gifted. They don’t have ADD or these other labels. They are difficult for good reason-
To be Nobody-but Yourself is a fulltime job. How can we educate these kids and even adults where it is a support system and not a stifling situation. We have so much talent born naturally into us. And a bad teacher or bad boyfriend or girlfriend can block our true potential/simply- . The kids that are loud need to be heard. They stand out for a reason. I want to know what it is they want to share. Not to shut up…and blend in- I think e. e. Cummings said it best Oct 26th, 1955;
To be Nobody-But-Yourself
Almost anybody Can learn to think or believe or know,
But not a single human being Can taught to feel.
Why?
Because whenever you think or you believe or you know, You are a lot of other people:
But the moment you feel
You are nobody-but-yourself
In a world which is doing it’s best Night and day
To make you everybody else
Means to fight the hardest battle Which any human being can fight And Never stop fighting.
The person who could fix our economic problems or our automobile or energy issues may not be in a business suit. Who are they? where are they?- we must start looking- and be open to new ways of learning and teaching. In a compassionate, non greedy,healthy way we can make the future better- without ego . With shared information world wide. It makes sense.
