Encouraging Pride in Kids


my rambling thoughts while cooking.....

"and maybe if we caught the children in our town reeeally young, 
and we taught them SPECIFICALLY about the colorful history of our area, 
and we instilled pride and motivation in them, 
and encouraged their good deeds for others, 
and taught them HOW to do good for others (cuz sadly fewer and fewer are taught that anymore)...
exposed them to the culture our area pr
ovides...


not a passing yearly field trip, but on a regular basis...


and we truly SUPPORTED their sports and music endeavors


 and allowed them to CELEBRATE their pride in their school and town...


MAYBE THEN would the youngsters grow into people who truly care about and have pride in


 this little town called Tamaqua...


and it will rise up and flourish (more so even than it is NOW due to recent dedicated ppl and programs)...





Thats what I'd like to see :-)"
