Priceless presents

Cap 5 ¡Despierta, baby!

It is certain what Savater says that we are not pure things, that we need "things" which things have not. It reminds me of what Philip K. Dick states in his explanation of "Human is" : "Technology has the answer to all of life's difficulties - except the human ones". Both of them make great enphasis on the importance of human relashionships.
I think that we won't have a good life unless we treat and are treated like human beings. How important is to give and have a word of consolation, encouragement; an advice; a feeling of sympathy, tenderness; a smile; a greeting, ... They are just simple things , however, they can undoubtedly improve the life of human beings.

Well said, Lili! You've reminded me of a cartoon where a student entered the class and told the teacher: "Morning, Ms X. I'm having a terrible day, and am counting on you to make it better." :-P

Looking back, do you feel the teachers you've had all along your life prioritised human relationships or something else in their relation with you and your partners?

Love,
Gladys

Hi Gladys,

I was educated at a catholic school and although when I was at school education was different from now, in general, teachers and higher authorities were good persons who were concerned about their students' difficulties and their family problems and tried to sympathize with each of them.
I bear in mind good memories from school.

Love,
Lili

Educational systems may change, but great educators are always pretty much the same, aren't they, Lili?

Thanks for sharing!

Gladys
