Beyond what, you ask? Well, beyond our knowledge. Books are a window to see what goes on beyond our walls. Consequently, our walls are our thoughts, forming a blueprint of the way we see the world. It is through these lenses that we define ourselves and the world around us. These lenses are also called schemas.
How do we come about to think about what we think? Where do our beliefs on education, love, life come from? The answer is simple: It comes from the expectations our society put upon us and our life experiences.
These two factors shape what we think and define who we are.
How boring would life be if we never to get out of these walls? If we never get challenged in our thinking and if we never learned anything new?
Books take us by the hand and make us transcend our walls by leading us to new horizons.
With this in mind, I pledge to summarize a book every other month. I will share a book related to education, social-emotional learning, or any other subjects guiding us in becoming the best parent we can be. As a result, and with more tools in our belts, we will more apt to guide our children toward academic and social-emotional excellency!
Thank you for following me on this journey!
