Today has been a wonderful day, despite my limited ability to speak due to a throat bug. Embracing moments of quiet reflection, I found solace in my own little corner, working with love and gratitude.

One topic that occupied my thoughts today was bullying. It’s disheartening to witness, especially considering it’s not confined to children but extends into adulthood as well. It’s astonishing how, under the guise of goodwill, some people exhibit acts of pure unkindness, like neglecting to even say “hi.”

Educating children is undoubtedly crucial, and nurturing our own offspring is a sacred responsibility. However, I firmly believe that the most challenging and essential form of education is self-education. It’s a lifelong journey that we must never forsake. Each day presents an opportunity to cultivate kindness and responsibility toward one another.

Life is inherently challenging, so why exacerbate it? Let’s not add unnecessary hardships. As the day draws to a close, I find immense joy in the sight of my beautiful children. They exemplify the values we strive for: never gossiping about each other, always lending a helping hand, and finding delight in life’s simple pleasures—whether it’s playing in the dirt, exuberant shouts (unfortunately, I can’t even whisper these days), or enjoying a game of football.

In their innocence and camaraderie, I find hope for a brighter, kinder tomorrow.
