刚看到这段摘录,非常感动,和大家共勉!
摘录哲人纪伯伦﹙Kahlil Gibran﹚的诗: 「孩子」中的几句话,和家长们分享:
你可以给孩子爱而非思想
他们自有见解
你可以庇护孩子的身体
但不可以禁棝他们的心灵
因为孩子的心灵居所
是你在梦中也无法企及的明日之屋
父母是弓
而孩子是充满生命力的箭
藉由你的力量射向前方
英文原文
On Children by Kahlil Gibran
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit,
not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends
you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the Archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrows that flies, so He loves also the bow
that is stable.
