aku tertarik dengan poem ni

if i had my child to raise over again

[by diane loomans]

if i had my child to raise all over again

i'd finger-paint more, and point the finger less

i would do less correcting and more connecting

i'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes

i would care to know less and know to care more

i'd take more hikes and fly more kites

i'd stop playing serious, and seriously play

i would run through more fields and gaze at more stars

i'd do more hugging and less tugging

i'd build self-esteem first, and the house later

i would be firm less often, and affirm much more

i'd teach less about the love power, and more about the power of love.

tak tahu..berkali kali aku baca poem ni....

do less correcting & more connecting...finger-paint more & finger point less...

sekadar memetik dari buku ustaz hasrizal abdul jamil "melihat & menatap wajah anak-anak yang di anugerahkan Allah, mudah-mudahan ibu bapa lebih sedar tentang apa yang telah mereka lakukan selama ini kepada amanah Allah yang diberi itu,"

hmmmm...banyak lagi yang perlu aku perbaiki diri ini sebagai "ummi" rupanya......Ya Allah, bantulah aku dalam mendidik & membesarkan anak-anakku..sesungguhnya aku jahil tanpa taufik & hidayahMu....amiin..
