Thursday Thoughts: A Seed of a Dream Can Grow a Forest of Possibility

 


You can't help but smile looking at this picture that depicts the innocence and wonder of childhood...wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone dreamed as a child does?

Parenting these days is quite a challenge, especially finding ways to keep our children healthy and drug-free. In addition to communicating about the risks of harmful substances, one of the best ways to keep kids off drugs is to encourage them to dream big and set goals that will keep them focused on a bright and promising future. Having dreams and goals in life teaches us to focus attention on the things that are most important. It helps create a vision of how we would like our life to be.

Children are our seeds for the future - let's nurture them to blossom to their full potential. When young people have dreams, along with family encouragement to achieve them, they can learn to be responsible, persevere through obstacles, and develop effective strategies to achieve their goals in life - all vital skills to help them avoid falling into the trap of alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use and addiction.
