your children are not your children, they are the sons and
daughters of life's longing for itself. They come through you but not
from you
And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.
You may house their bodies but not souls, you may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer seek the mark upon the path of infinite and he bends you with his might that his arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness, for even as
he loves the arrow that flies, so he loves also the bow that is stable
-kahlil gibran-
