As parents, we normally think that our children are special; but for the other part of the world, people even don't give a damn for them.
In his speech on graduation day, the English teacher of Wellesley highschool told the kids that they are not special! He also talked about the importance of pursuing passions for the sake of passions, rather than seeking accolades or striking off items from an arbitrary checklist. Accolades and lists may tell us about accomplishments, but life is meant to be experienced, not just accomplished. It's like the difference between reading books for the sake of reading and reading books just to get a good grade, etc.
What do you think about this speech? How is it in Vietnam, for our kids today?
