절대적인 창조력을 위한 배움의 미학.
배운다는 것은 삶을 노래하는 것이고, 배운다는 것은 새로움을 창조해내는 것이고, 배운다는 것은 자기를 단련한다는 말.

Do you agree that on'e pre-teen childhoos years are the most important years of one's life? (the time from birth to 12 years of age)

Childhood years, also known as the formative years, deserve recognition as the most special time of growth for the following three reasons. First, children during this period go through the most rapid physical chages of all time. Second, their mental fitness takes shape during these sensitive years. Third, they form their identities as social beings in their own families and schools. All of these remarkable chages form a basis for their adjustment to the society at large later in life.

Children during this phase experience a continuous physicla transformation. They grow rapidly as their weight and height multiply. In addition to the chagne in size, they learn sophisticated physical activities such as running, talking, and singing. It is then a small wonder that world-class performing artists of every persuasion began their training early on during this malleable period. It takes much more time and effort later to achieve the same level of success of this period.

Second, thier mental fitness takes shape during these sensitive years. Although experts point to the importance of the prenatal period, children's personalities are directly formed as they interact with friends and family. Depending on the nature and mood of their surroundings, chidren's temperament and attitudes can lean towards either hypersensitivity or optimistic heartiness. Therefore, adults should always ensure that children are screened from unhealthful stresses.

During childhood, their identities as social beings are molded, serving as a basis for their adjustment to the greater adult society later. In this formative period, children learn the basic skills of social life. They begin to discover their place in family and school, which are a microcosm of society. Through thick-and-thin of friends and family, meaningful relationships are forged. They build upon their experiences of this period for their future outlook on life. The relationship skills learned at this stage make or break their adulthood idnetities.

Children who reveive proper care and guidance during the most sensitive years of pre-teen childhood grow up to become well-adjusted adults able to contribute to society to their fullest potential. By and large, adults exhibiting mature behaviros and perceptive faculty have their potential fully developed during childhood. In the most malleable period of life, these would be adults witness their physical, mental, psychological, and emotional health take irreversible shape and gradually become ready to function as productive members of society.

tuesdays with Morrie

Mitch Albom




★★★★★

[간단 Review]

우연찮게 들린 서점에서 바로 구입한 책. 기내에서의 기억을 고스란히 담기 위해 구입했다. 
생각하지 못했던 나와 만났던 힘든 시기에 따뜻하게 다독여준 친구 Morrie.
정말 위대하다고 할 수 밖에.
힘든 시기에 같이 했던 책이라 이 책이 번역서 보다 더 찡하게 다가온다. ㅋ
