“In my childhood I was obsessed with cameras but could not afford one. After much persuasion my father Harivansh Rai Bachchan bought me a box camera which I treasured for years. Initially I clicked trees and nature and as I grew up started noticing prettier things-motorbike, sleek cars and cool girls. But the hamartia of life is when you desire something you cannot afford it and when you are able to afford it you are too old to use it. Now I don't need all gadgets but it's satisfying to know that at least I can afford them.” KnowsNeedsYearsI CanUseAbleLife IsDesireGirlFatherTreeChildhoodCarGrewGrew UpCamerasBoxesObsessedSatisfyingPersuasionNoticingGadgetsTreasuredMotorbikeCool Girl Author:Amitabh Bachchan
“People tend to box little girls in. They teach them to sit properly and stand quietly and not attract attention. Sports is one place where girls can be free and enjoy the exhilaration of movement.” PeopleLittlesGirlSportsEnjoyAttentionTeachMovementBoxesExhilaration Author:Tenley Albright
“One Dad I know uses what I call Post-It® Note therapy on his children. He leaves sticky Post-It Notes everywhere ...in their lunch box, inside their shoes, on top of their sandwich before he wraps it up. He once went into his daughter's room, looking for his hammer, and on the back of her bedroom door were every Post-It Note he'd ever given her - over 250 in all with simple messages like 'Great job'...'I love you'...or 'You're special to me.' Do you think that girl knew, without a doubt, that her Dad valued her and loved her?” ThinkingKnowsChildrenUseJobsGirlGivenSimpleRoomsDoubtDoorsSpecialLove YouDadMessagesDaughterNotesShoesBoxesPostsTherapyLunchBedroomHammersWrapsSandwichesGreat JobThat GirlStickySpecial To MePost It Notes Author:Jack Canfield
