The story we live in front of our children shows them the
truth of our lives and theirs. If we see and say the positive stories in life,
our kids will experience the world as a positive place where they make a
difference.
If, on the other hand, we constantly comment on the negative
state of the world, the problem with the neighbours, the unfair hand we've been
dealt - our children will learn to be critical and afraid. They will see others
as dangerous and suspicious rather than unique and beautiful.
Because our stories become us, great parents tell stories
that empower rather than impede. There are so many positive messages that raise
people up. By telling positive stories, we create happier children and thus a
better world.
We are each truly special. We need to believe that of
ourselves and tell that to our children. Tell good stories. Live with joy and
passion. Smile.
Keep changing the world - one story at a time.
