Education must therefore promote and nourish as wide a range of capacities and skills in our children as possible. The gamut of such skills include the performing arts (music, dance, drama and so on ), painting and crafts and literary (weaving stories, wielding language to portray different aspects of life, a flair for metaphorical and poetic expression, etc.)
Also skills as diverse as some children’s special capacity to bond with nature- with trees, birds, and animals-need to be nurtured.
I believe we would be happier to have a personal revolution in our individual lives and go back to simpler living and more direct thinking.
It is the simple things of life that make living worthwhile, the sweet fundamental things such as love and duty, work and rest, and living close to nature.
