Pablo Casals was a world-famous Spanish musician and writer. Now
listen to these words he wrote in a piece titled "You Are a Marvel":
...Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You
are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never
been another [young person] like you. Your legs, your arms,
your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a
Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. Yes you are a
marvel. And when you grow up, you can then harm another
who is, like you, a marvel?
Pablo Casals is saying that each one of you is filled with wonder. Each
one of you is special. So how can you grow up and be hurtful to
someone else whose is a special , one-of-a-kind person, too?
Today, let's treat each other like the special, on -of-a kind human beings
we are, and always search for kind and peaceful ways to live together.
***With something to think about, Make it a great day....or not. The choice is yours.
