Life's Treasures

For the record, I want to say that all the material that I had just written just suddenly up and disappeared and I do not like this blogger word processor one bit for it. I do not know whether it is due to the computer or the word processor but I don't like a sudden change when writing a piece.

I am saying that all adult lifetimes are determined by childhood experiences, like it or not.  Sociologists and psychologists have studied and argued heredity versus environment for decades, but there is no doubt that childhood is the foundation for everything that an adult believes, decides, or accepts and rejects.

Parents, family, and friends whose ideas are fed into the child's mind determines his own sense of self worth, self expectation, and thus, his own future.  I doubt that many genius children would ever succeed in life if it were not for the parent's awareness of the child's unusual ability.

A child cannot exhibit musical ability without an instrument upon which to play, nor can he show or demonstrate reading ability without a book to read, or to paint or draw without a canvas of some kind upon which to draw.

Without close attention given to the child, most parents will overlook or neglect to find innate qualities that could be developed.  These hidden talents may lie dormant for years before the child within decides to explore some or many of those inner qualities that he would have demonstrated earlier had he had the opportunity.

The greatest treasure in life is self discovery, especially later in life when one thinks that one has done everything only to find that he has capabilities and talents latent but evident.

It is never too late to try to accomplish a task, a goal, a dream that one has either overlooked or prolonged.  Give in to attempting to make dreams come true no matter what age.  Not everyone has to do it all when young!
