Scenes from my so-called life

You told me to sit still. And I tried and did for a while. But then a twitch and an itch happened. And stillness eluded me. So go back to being still, you said. But running and jumping seemed so fun. I thought you'd get angry but you just watched. Aren't you going to stop me? I asked. A simple no you uttered. You're free to do what you want, you said. So I ran and I jumped and turned cartwheels and all. And I felt free. I felt light. I felt right. Then I got tired and my jump became a skip. My run became a walk. And I turned to you and asked, May I sit once more? You smiled and pointed beside you. My child, your spot has been waiting for you Until you have chosen to sit once more. That's what you said. And I walked towards you, With your hand you reached out. Sit here with me, you said. Sit and be still. And I tried and I did. And rest came to soothe my weariness.

Subjective leadership (This is how I see it)   If you were a child and I were your father and I wanted you to eat vegetables then what would be the best way to make you do it?   Forcing you will just end up in a disaster and a lot of wasted food. I can't shove spoonfuls of vegetables (in this case ampalaya) into your mouth and expect you to take in everything. You'd probably spit it out and throw a tantrum for good measure.   I'd have to cook the ampalaya in a way that may appeal to you. I'd have to give you well presented small servings that you may be inclined to try and finish eating.   I'd have to be patient and wait until you develop a taste for it. But more importantly, I'd have to show you that I eat it too and that I enjoy it. Maybe when you see me taking pleasure in something, you'd figure you could take pleasure in it too.
