Roots and Wings


Whether we accept or not, the most creative job in the world is to teach. Because we are handling human lives, that can become an asset or curse to our future. If we keep teaching the same things again and again, imagine the world would have been in chaos.

The education of children is the most important task parents, or a nation, have to undertake; on them the future well-being of the world depends.  Through the combined efforts of home, community and school, education has to create men and women capable of doing new things well, not simply repeating what earlier generations have done; but to form people who are insightful, creative, inventive and who accept responsibility for the well-being of others.

Education has always involved giving young people both roots and wings; roots to understand where they have come from, and wings to fly to where they need to go. Without knowing their roots, they can never know their strengths and weaknesses. And knowing their strengths and weaknesses, they can further qualify themselves to be deep rooted in what they think is their future.

I believe all our efforts driven towards such direction of giving roots and wings to our children in the transformative learning culture would definitely make our children to share, to innovate and succeed in life and work.
