If I
Had My Child to Raise Over Again
If I
had my child to raise all over again,
I'd do less correcting, and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my
eyes.
I would care to know less and know to care
more,
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites,
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I'd run through more fields and gaze at more
stars.
I'd do more hugging, and less tugging. I would be
firm less often, and affirm much more.
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house
later.
I'd teach less about the love of power, and more
about the power of love.
