Extraordinary Lives

Bring your work back to the workshop twenty times. Polish it continuously, and polish it again.
Nicolas Boileau

In The Parent's Tao Te Ching: Ancient Advice for Modern Parents, William Martin suggests...

“Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples, and pears.
Show them how to cry when pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary come alive for them.
The extraordinary will take care of itself.”
