GRATITUDE - Thích Phước Tịnh

How do we transmit happiness to each unique child? We need to find the best way for each child depending on his or her character. But first we must look at the merit given to us by God in granting us our children and not complain. Our children nourish us in many different ways. Children, for example, nourish our patience. We become more fresh by learning to be calm and to be able to calm our minds in the midst of noisy and complicated situations, like the dining hall during the Family Retreat. If you can practice eating calmly while the children are crying and yelling and running around, then you can develop a thick patience that can serve you well in difficult situations later on. Family life is the best training ground. Be proud and appreciate how lucky you are to have three, four or even five children.
