Finest Post Nominations - March 2023

Thank you My Dear Viji Jaan. Like many here will agree, to be nominated by you is an award, reward, honor and accolade in itself. And as a bonus, due to the nomination, Viswa came across the thread and responded.

Response by @Viswamitra in Avoiding The Source Of Envy Is A Sign Of Weakness?

Such a soothing yet thought-provoking response by Viswa. Using examples from mythology and Indian traditions, the response gets to the gist of my question, answers it in detail, and my favorite part - also gives a clear verdict on the main question - it is ok to avoid or reduce contact with the source of one's envy.

 

@sweetsmiley, good to see a nomination by you. As Thyagu mentioned above, only posts in English qualify for FP as they can be read and understood by all without needing external tools like Google translate.

I hope Thyagu will post a version of it in English.

 

Friendly reminder: Homework is overdue by 21 days.

From somewhere in WhatsApp:
A friend got fired for his job at a calendar factory. All he did was take a day off ...

 

When a post by @Viswamitra is nominated by @iyerviji, we can rest assured it has something worthy of reading many times.

Roles Of The Parents And The Teachers
"If there is anything that we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves." ~ Carl Jung

Viswa's post gives us many small to-do's and ideas to add in the check-list we check ourselves by. There were so many points in the thought-provoking post, and this one caught my attention the most:

"The best guidance is to ask them questions that would help them formulate right decisions." ​

So important at any age of the child. Except for the most basic non-negotiable ones, it is always better for all if the child arrives at the decision independently with the parent only guiding the process.
