What if each of us had an imaginary bucket, filled with drops when others treat us kindly and we reciprocate, and emptied when we wrong them with our words and actions?

This story addresses a fundamental educational value that is important to instill in our children. Violence toward others, whether in word or deed, harms not only them, but us as well. We become angry, anxious people, seeing only the gray side of life. But respecting others, supporting them, and treating them with kindness and compassion fills us, too, with positive energy that makes us “see life as beautiful,” as the poet says.

This value grows and is strengthened primarily within the family. When we, as parents, listen to our children, encourage them, express our love for them, and support them when they need our caring hand, they grow up to fill buckets, not empty them.
