I have been thinking about us.
Lots of things about us have come to mind. Learning has come up most. Thoughts of instruction, education, and teaching have arisen.I've thought of ways of knowing and understanding.
I have consciously and unconsciously resisted learning from time to time. Most often I have been pleased to learn, pleased to be taught. I think that often man of us would be pleased to learn, to be taught, to be educated, to be instructed.
We desire the power, the knowledge, the understanding, the skill.
Many a husband could learn to better educate his wife about a thing or two. I think that he could learn to do it in a way his wife found acceptable, perhaps even a pleasure. I am sure that a father has a skill he can help his child to develop. The child would love to receive the father nurtured skill.
A wife can find an area in which her wants instruction. She is capable of learning to instruct him in a way that honors him. A mother can learn to teach her child something in a way that is pleasing to her and to the child.
A father and a mother can learn to more appropriately applaud a child's respectful attempt to help a sibling learn.
A family member might learn to encourage a grandparent to share skill or knowledge wit another family member.
You have some willingness to learn, so do I.
Like brothers and sisters we can help each other to the power, knowledge, understanding, and skill.
