RE: Time should never be wasted - a short story by giantbear

in #fiction7 years ago

Welldone! I like it - you touched my heart with "just a story". This is the way to make someone thinking about his own life... Much better than telling him what he has to change... Education today (I can only speak for Germany) is only directed to the head (knowledge, facts, ....) There is no space for learning by heart (stories, being kreative...) thank you @giantbear - it's a good name for a storyteller :)

Sort:  

Ha ha...thank you @kadna I appreciate your comment. Are you from Germany? Are you a teacher?

I've been a Kindergartenteacher - nearly everyone in my family is a teacher ;) - but I decided to "work" with children, because they are "closer" to life. In my eyes mother earth needs more living people. In Germany "life" is excluded in so many parts of daily life: children, ill and old people spend their life in special houses, there are only a few places to play in nature... I hope you understand what I mean (my schoolEnglish is so faaaaaar away haha nearly 40 years) - in the german blog I just wrote a post about death - another piece of our living that is excluded... Perhaps I will translate it - to get more practice in writing in English ;)
