What learning should be….

This video encapsulates learning even without words…[watch without audio, the impact is still the same]

It shows ‘discovery’ and the learner was having fun the entire time. There was no complaint. There was not whining about difficulty, or pain. There was no limit to the discovering. The spirit of ‘aha’ pervades the entire time. So much joy!


Should we not see our own learning the same way? Be unconstrained in learning about oneself, and constantly developing a clear definition of ‘boundaries’. Instead of cribbing about others, circumstances and making oneself the victim of circumstance?

Quotations:

God starts us out on a life course to fulfill a certain purpose and then, only when we are ready, He gives us course corrections. Like a good river pilot, He steers us away from troubled waters, and like a good coach, He never puts us in the game until we are ready. The journey is never boring.

REMEMBER THIS ABOUT YOU...

  Read this out loud to yourself, and mean it!!

  I am precious, valuable, lovable and capable.
  The world will not be the same without me.
  I make a difference in this world, in the community I live in.
  I can make another person smile.
  I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
  I sing for I am loved by a great God whose nature is to give  love, mercy and grace.

  [In Hindi]
  Mai amulya hoon.
  Yeh duniya mayray bina wahi nahin rahegi.
  Mayray hone say is duniya mein kuch badlav hai.
  Mujh se doosre ke chahre pay muskuraahat aati hai.
  Mujhe bhayankar se banaya gaya hai.
  Mujhe gaana hai ki ek mahaan; ishwhar mujhe pyaar karte.
  Hain aur mayray prati daya dikhaate hain.
