Food for Thoughts

I found this very true from pastor . Read and be blessed.

Hi all, thot I should share this with u as sent to me.

*WAKE UP PARENTS* ❗
Years back, *poor illiterate parents* produced
🔹 Doctors,
🔹 Engineers,
🔹 Scientists,
🔹 Accountants,
🔹 Lawyers,
🔹 Architects,
🔹 Professors.., whom I will refer to as *Group 'A'*.
These *Group 'A'* Children struggled on their own after Primary 6 or Grade 12, to become notable personalities. Most of them
👉 trekked to school *barefooted*
👉 went to farms
👉 fetched water and firewood
👉 cared for domesticated animals
👉 did some work including trading after school to survive.
Now Group 'A' ,who have now become Parents themselves are *producing Group 'B' Children*
These group B children are
🔹 pampered
🔹 helped in their homeworks or home assignments from nursery school through secondary schools to higher institutions.
🔹 chauffeur driven to very expensive schools or are sent abroad to study.
🔹 they can watch movies from morning till dawn after school.
🔹 they are treated like baby kings and queens.
🔹 they don't do any household chores.
🔹 Food is put on the table for them,
🔹 their plates are removed and washed by parents or house maids.
🔹 They are given expensive cars and clothes,
🔹 not forgetting *big pocket monies to be wasted* !!!.
🔹 Their parents help them in doing their assignments.
🤔 In spite of all these, only few can *speak* or *write* correctly. 😏
🤔Group 'A' Parents cared for their own *parents* and *children*, Group 'B',their Children are still *struggling to find their feet at age 30+*.‼
🤔They find it difficult to do things on their own because they are used to being helped to think and doing things by Group 'A'. So they can't help themselves, their parents or the society. THEY ABANDON THEIR PARENTS IN THEIR BID TO ACQUIRE THE WORLD
😴 *Where do you belong* ❓
🏮Reduce the pampering and the unnecessary help you offer your children.
🏮 Let your children *grow in wisdom, intelligence and strength*.
🏮Let them face the truth and the realities of life. Teach them to grow to become *independent adults.* Teach them to
👉 fear God,
👉 respect others and
👉 develop confidence in themselves.
🤔Parents, discipline your children to become disciplined adults, *useful* and not *useless.*
Note that Life affords no greater  responsibility, no greater privilege, than the raising of the next generation.

ONE LITTLE GIRL: an interesting story of a shoe Addict

 I find Imelda Marcos story very interesting. Thought of sharing. Enjoy ONE LITTLE GIRL  Once upon a time there was a little girl. She was a beautiful little girl, everyone agreed. She had dark hair, pale skin and almond eyes. And she sang like an angel. Everyone agreed on that too. Until she was 10 our little girl lived in the big city. It was a sprawling, bustling, filthy place. She lived in a hovel. Well, it wasn’t so much a hovel as a rundown garage. And, when the wind blew at night, the doors and shutters creaked and banged and she was very afraid. And every year when the fierce monsoon rains wreaked their vengeance on the earth the floor of the garage flooded and the little girl’s bare feet were cold and wet. One night in a fearsome storm our little girls’ mummy died – “of pneumonia”, they said, but our little girl didn’t understand. And so she and her widowed father and her five brothers and sisters left the garage in the big city and went to live on a tropical ...

How Learning 11 Languages Taught Me 11 Crucial Lessons

How Learning 11 Languages Taught Me 11 Crucial Lessons This article is a wake-up call for all those who dream of becoming multilingual: just do it! Luca Lampariello talks about where he finds the motivation for learning languages, and how he’s learned 11 so far. By Luca Lampariello When people meet someone who speaks many languages fluently, the first reaction is often one of slight bewilderment. Multilingualism is generally considered  cool yet difficult to achieve , especially if second, third and fourth languages are acquired later in life. As an advocate of language learning, I of course agree that it’s cool, but I challenge the assumption that it’s difficult. My name is Luca Lampariello. Here I would like to deviate from the well-trodden route to  how  I learned 11 languages and concentrate on  why  I learned these languages. Seasoned language learners will all tell you that motivation is fundamental, so where can one find this motivation and h...
