Representation
Represent… a simple word, yet the meanings for any individual can be endless. For me one memory comes into mind:
My mom owns a daycare center where I have grown up and her daycare has come a second home to me. I work there now which is a rewarding feeling. But what makes me happy is seeing adults that come in with their kids, but those adults have gone to the daycare center when they were younger. When I see a mother or father walk in with their child I can see how the child represents the parent. I can see certain traits or certain behaviors that the parents themselves carry. “The children are our future,” I absolutely agree… in fact that’s the daycare’s motto.
I would love to know more about your role as a young adult in the daycare, in shaping the future of the children you influence. I wonder what traits they carry from you.
