GN nostr 😴💜

I homeschool my kid.

Today we trained badminton.

She fell again & again.

The real lesson was not badminton though…

Today she learned the deeper you fall…the stronger you become.

The faster you fail…the higher you rise.

So fall fast & fail often I said.

But listen darling you always have to wipe your mouth and keep going no matter what.

Later today she said something that melted my heart & stopped time for a second as she taught me something more important.

She: “Daddy I’m so happy I can spend so much time with you. I really love it.”

During that conversation I asked her why she actually didn’t like kindergarden back then. (It took me a few months to finally pull her out)

She paused for a second thinking and replied:

“I don’t know daddy.

I just didn’t like being caged in a room I wasn’t allowed to leave.”

Silence.

That one hit deep.

Still digesting her response & thinking…

How many kids do we traumatize by separating them from their parents and locking them up early…calling it education?

She changed me.

I always thought I was carrying her on my shoulders.

Truth is she carries me on hers.
