to become .....

If you treat
an individual
as if he / she were
what he / she ought to be
and COULD be
he / she will become
what he / she ought to be
and could be
GOETHE

This quote is in my new
agenda 2012 .

and
just
 what
 I needed

I think we
teachers
are
adjusted
to think and see
and believe
in this .
*
happy thoughts
for all of you

  1. Hallo Francis,
    Prachtige gedachte, vrij vertaald dus gaat het om ´behandel de ander als je zelf behandeld wilt worden...´ toch? Want we willen allemaal graag zijn wie we kunnen zijn en niet wie we moeten zijn... misschien heb ik het wel heel krom vertaald of verkeerd begrepen, maar volgens mij zitten we op dezelfde golflijn...
    Ik wens je een heel mooie dag,
    Lieve groet,
    Mirjam

  2. HOW VERY TRUE MY DEAR, and GOETHE was so right. IT IS SO RIGHT!

    I hope you have a chance to come to visit me. I have a link to my husband's blog where he has a video that I think you would enjoy. It is on THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT. It is something that I know you will appreciate, for you are a loving person that CARES about all that you do in life....come see me. LOVE TO YOU, Anita

  4. I think this is true Francis. If we give kids encouragement, we will see them bloom right before our eyes. I see you have sweet Marcia on here now. Francis, she is one the most sincere and beautiful souls I have met in blogland...such a gem. A big splash of love to you and Elisabeth today, dear friend.

  5. Hi Francis,
    I just want to stop by and tell you that you and Elizabeth have been in my thoughts and prayers all week. I will keep her name at the top of my prayers ~ for a calming of the pain {both physical and emotional} and for this to pass with success ...
    I pray for you too, my dear, that you will find comfort as a mother ~ remembering the heart of Mary, let her be an inspiration and a comfort.
    God bless you ♥
    ~ Maria

  6. My precious friend,

    Life is spinning so fast that it is so hard to catch our breathe, isn't it? I come here having enjoyed your wonderful comment that you left me yesterday, but I was so busy and tired that I had no time to blog. You are one of the most wonderful friends in the firmament of blogland stars that just sparkle love to me. I extend my heartfelt prayers to you and E.

    YOU ARE SUPER and we are in this THING CALLED LIFE...TOGETHER!!!!!!! Anita
