“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.” PeopleWayLifeInspirationalMayChildrenHelpingShowsHandsSeemsCareJoyDiesAsksPleasureCompassionWonderAliveCryEmpathyOrdinaryInfiniteStriveExtraordinaryAppreciationTake CareLive LifeNovelistsYour ChildrenApplesPetSympathyFoolishnessEveryday LifeEnjoy LifeRaising ChildrenAdmirableOrdinary LifeTomatoesCaring For OthersTastingExtraordinary ThingsAppreciate LifePearsLife Is PreciousLife Is GreatExtraordinary Life Author:William Martin
