A Tidbit of Wisdom

We all know that lending a helping hand to our children in hard times is the compassionate thing to do, it also stands to reason that when they are young, we need to teach them how to be hard workers, be industrious.... I love this little paragraph from this site....

"The Amish proverb, "A man who gives his children habits of industry provides for them better than by giving them a fortune" is similar to the common American saying "Give a man a fish and feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime." The saying, "Children need models more than they need critics" encourages adults to take a positive approach to raising and influencing children.

Just as the proverb "No dream comes true until you wake up and go to work" is very true for all of us, no matter how old we are.
