I
am nothing close to a writer. It’s just, you know… it happens
that life throws you upon something, whether weird and startling you
by its unexpectedness or ordinary that you pass by every day but too
busy to take notice of, - doesn’t matter, - and this something
gives a tremendous shake to what’s been nagging at the back of your
consciousness, pulls to the surface what has been roaming about your
insides, what you always felt was of vital importance, but what you
have never before now been able to express.
For
me it was a question I bumped into recently, and I am going to ask
this question out, even knowing that at the first sight it might
sound not much different from all those meaningless broad
generalizations about everything but nothing, applying to everyone
but in fact nobody, focused on something seemingly significant but in
their essence empty, - of that you-are-what-you-want-to-be or
live-for-today-only nature and that there are many more issues worth
spending time and mental abilities pondering than such ones. All
true, but, please, take a minute, just one minute, read this and
first try to answer it for yourself before you keep on reading, -
what are the three words you most want to teach your children?
