Learning and the Community

As our children spiral outward into the world, they will understand how unique their learning lives are from the majority.  If we have trusted them implicitly and if we haven't disempowered them, they will feel confident and assured in their different-from-the-norm "educational" upbringing. They will feel secure in knowing that they were gifted with freedom, empowerment and trust and that gift has nourrished their soul and creative genius.

Entering the world with unwavering trust in themselves as learners, they will be confident in all of their chosen endeavours.  They will understand that they are fully capable, powerful human beings. That unwavering trust within the child has been brought forth from the trust given to them by their parents and by supportive mentors and community.  

If those around children trust in all the unique faces of learning and exalt the unique expressions of the individual, we will move forward -- beyond a place of critical judgement, of timelines, prototype human beings, of haste and racing towards something that isn't serving us.  

For us to reach a place of loving acceptance in our families and in our communities, the children need to know that those most important in her life have complete faith in her and in all her learning "faces". She needs to know that she is serving the community through her unique expressions.
