If children live...
i received this lil' note for my service at Touch Community Services (TCS) Children's Club in Yishun last month as the club celebrated Teachers' Day. (i am no teacher, but just help out with the children's school work when i am there)
Beyond all the thanksgiving towards all the volunteers, i think the words on this note said it all about our heart of giving towards these precious children who come from needy or lower-income homes, and i would like to share them with you. =) [Click on 'Comments' below to read the note]

For the benefit of those who want to read the note but couldnt (Apologies i don't know what's wrong with the image), here it is:
If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to be shy.
If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
If children live with tolerance, they learn to be patient.
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
If children live with praise, they learn to appreciate.
If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
If children live with acceptance and friendship, they learn to find love in the world.
If these are sooo true even for us, how much more are they important for a child's growth?
Let's not wait for excessive hurt and wounds to embed in a child's heart before we help him/her find truth and love. We can start by letting our friends and family near us live with tolerance, encouragement, praise, fairness, security, approval, acceptance and friendship all the time. We can choose to give and show GRACE to them all the time. =)
