Head, shoulders, knees and toes..., and 'x'


🎵 Head shoulders knees and toes..., 

We often teach our kids this famous nursery rhyme and let the Sunday School teachers teach spiritual matters to our children. Generation Alpha kids are our first true digital natives, who learn the concepts of life and death through online games like Minecraft, or from PlayStation. We must provide better sources of knowledge about spiritual matters, and books are still one of the best sources of knowledge. We needn't get a doctoral degree in philosophy to understand the importance of spiritual consciousness to teach our kids. For parents, simply read the encyclopedia.com. 😊

In western tradition, the dual conceptions of the body and x (whether x are spirit, soul, mind, reason, psyche, or self) often become topics to discuss, such as anthropomorphism about gods or religions.The fixed point of anthropomorphism is the mystery of the life and death of the human body.

I wish I could find more children's books that address spiritual themes. But this article by Dena McMurdie is really helpful. Please check out the link below.

Adventure with God

Photo Source: Pixabay (Photographer: Natalia Kollegova) The Angel asked, "where are you going?" To the mountain, where I can find the fire hole To the valley, where I can look for the water stream To the city, where I can find an exciting job To the cave, where I can find the bats To the grave, where I can find reality To the highway, where I can feel the velocity To the lake, where I can enjoy silence To the big river, where I can feel the danger To the deep blue sea, where I can see the other creatures I am going on an adventure with God.

'Oat' and 'Out'

"Son, if the oats finish, we may need to go out!" Said a young mother to her little boy. How do you perceive this line, a sad line? Supposing it is a sad line, yes, they need to go out! Even if it is a happy line, they still need to go out. "Mom, let's go out and pick strawberries instead! The boy responded cheerfully. I learned something from children way of thinking, that we can count on their big picture thinking in hard times or dilemma. Photo source: Unsplash (Photographer: No-Revisions)

X'mas Self Esteem

Photo Source: Pixabay (Photographer: Sidra Iftikhar) Merry I live in the capital city and don't have a boyfriend. My parents live in another city. I always spend my Christmas days in a boarding house. Thank God I have a few friends who want to join me at church.  Happy I study at college at night and work in the daytime, don't have a boyfriend, my parents have just divorced, and my mom always makes us spend Christmas holiday in a hotel in town. This is how we survive Christmas. Joy I work a full-time job as a waitress in a Chinese Restaurant. I spend my Christmas in a restaurant. I volunteer to work on holiday, because my family is not in this country. My fiancé can not come to see me. The Christmas ornaments are the only festive thing that makes me feel like Christmas day.
