HOME SCHOOLING
An emperor had three daughters.
Like most fathers he wanted them
to have the best education possible.
He sent his oldest daughter to
the best schools in his kingdom.
He sent his second daughter
to the wisest teachers in the land.
The third daughter was not given
any special education. Just live.
His oldest – secretly his favorite -
got three Ph. D’s – in 3 different fields.
His second sat and listened to
the wisdom of the masters.
The third was told by an old maid.
Go and watch everyone and everything.
Who got the best education?
Who became the wisest?
Some think it was daughter # 1 -
the one with the three Ph.D’s.
Others thought it was # 2 – the one
who got to know the wisdom of the ages.
But most found out it was # 3.
She knew the currents of the rivers.
She knew the greed, the betrayals,
in the marketplace and in marriages.
She learned the echoes of the heart
and the gift of giving time and love to others.
Go and watch them – their parents –
and their maids – and you’ll know the answer.
to have the best education possible.
