One thing I really miss about my life is appreciating beauty and creating beauty. In my youth, I’d spend hours and days, writing journals, sketching ideas, planning strategies, colouring, making, reading, communicating………..and absorbed the beauty of my surroundings. My parents were too busy doing their own thing thus my brothers and I, we were left with the string of maids and drivers for any and many of life’s lessons. Of course, that left me a lot of time to get up to my own devices! And although I got up to a lot of no good, I also learned to be an artist. Quick, let’s all abandon our kids now!

These days, I am too busy to do all that. But I am about to un-busy myself to start doing them all again.

It is me. I am a hopeless romantic and I want to make time to smell the roses. I want to get back down to basics. I want to put technology on the back-burner and focus more on the simple things. I want my kids to be artists too and for that, I need to be an example to them.

I don’t want to be the Mom who’s always too busy, uninterested in whatever it is they have to say. I want to be the Mom who is there. Available at any time. I want to be the Mom who nurtures and endears, not one who judges and criticizes. I want to guide my kids to have good values, good manners, compassion and a good heart. I want my kids to see the world, to learn about cultures and people, and never to look down on anybody, at any time. Ever. I want my kids to learn independence yet know that they can always depend on me, if they so wished. I want them never to lie and be dishonest. I want them to live with dignity and the highest integrity, never to cheat or be unfaithful. I want them to know that all we really need to be happy is a home to come home to, some food and water to keep us going, clothes to keep us dressed and love. Lots of love.

I want to teach my kids how to fish, how to fly and how to cook a mean dish.

I’ve been pressing these lessons little by little at every opportunity to my 6 year old and it is taking effect.

The academics of school don’t matter because the lesson of life, the journey of life, is far harder and tougher to master, than algebra and sodium chloride equilibria.

I want my kids to be loved so much that they never have to yearn being loved by another. I want them secure in their own skin, never having to succumb under pressure from anyone. I want them to be good citizens of the world.

Am I asking for too much? Of course not.

To love! And to life! *raises crystal champagne glass* Let’s raise great kids together – the future generation.
