A
few weeks ago Ofer Plaut, our Senior
The Way to Happiness
Lecturer, held a session for
elementary school aged children.
This time Ofer decided not to submit
a report on what he said nor what he
did but rather give us a special
glance at how the children reacted
to the lecture - their insights,
views and feelings they described
through their letters to Ofer.
These
are a few of the answers to Ofer’s
question of “What did you learn
today?”
Children's
Answers: What Did You Learn Today?
-
Today
I learned that when someone hits
you, you shouldn’t hit them
back, but use your mouth to talk
and not to hit or curse.
-
I
learned one thing: hitting
can lead to death.
-
I
learned that we need to live in
Happiness and not in violence.
If we live in violence our lives
will be bad, bitter and damned.
-
I
learned about violence and
Happiness. We need to control
the anger in our heart and not
to lose control.
-
I
learned what Happiness is and
what violence is. It’s
important to know how not to get
angry so quickly, but to first
chill out and talk.
-
I
learned about Happiness and
violence ... Violence
brings down the Happiness –
then there’s no Happiness.
-
If
we restrain or control ourselves
and be
responsible-for-our-actions we
will have a better world.
-
I
learned that restraint/control
determines if we live on the
positive or negative side of
life.
-
How
to achieve more love and
friends.
-
I
learned to give, to treat those
around me with respect and if I
give from myself then I will
receive from others.
-
I
learned today that we need to
fulfill our obligations and once
you do you can achieve anything
you want.
-
I
learned to listen to my friends.
Also it’s not good to curse
and not advisable to hit or hurt
because if you do you’ll get
more (cursing and hitting)
back.
-
I
learned today that I need to
fulfill my obligations and I
learned what restraint is.
Until
now, over 30,000 children from all
over the country have participated
in our lectures, sessions and
workshops all based on The Way to
Happiness book.
The
above feedback is only a small
sample of the children’s
achievement in understanding the
importance of values from The Way
to Happiness – a logical guide
to a better life.
So
we’ll all remember that children
are Happier with a lot less
violence!
Would
you like your children to learn The
Way to Happiness?
Many
surprises to come soon………
