What Three Things Would You Teach Your Children?

Let's hypothetically assume you are going to have children someday, or perhaps there are some of you who already have children of your own. [b]By the time your child has grown into an adult, what three things, more than anything else, would you hope they would have learned from you?[/b] For example, my answer:[spoiler]I hope my children would grow up understanding the importance of open-mindedness. That everything and everyone should be given a fair chance. I hope they'd learn to respect the opinions and views of others, even if those opinions and views may differ entirely from their own. And lastly, I'd hope they would be concerned with the world around them, and the people in it. To care about what's going on in that stranger's life. To be aware of all the good and bad in this world they're living in, and to want to do good for others.[/spoiler]

  • I just had a daughter and I think about things I want to tell her when she gets older quite a bit now. I have 4 so far that I really want her to know. The first and most obvious is that I love you completely and utterly and I always and forever will. You'll never understand the depth of that until you yourself have children. Seek balance in everything you do and in all the information you seek. Be kind. Make the choice to look for the good in people while simultaneously being aware of their imperfections. Take time every once in a while and remember that you're a miracle. Life will be beautiful and ugly and inspiring and painful and overwhelming. You're living on the only planet that we know of that supports life while spinning through an infinite and ever expanding universe. Take a deep breath every once in a while and truly feel that.
