Do your kids enjoy SouthPark? Or is it banned in your home?
The creators Matt Stone & Trey Parker have a inspiring (yes, really) video which uses the words of Alan Watts (British philosopher) as he compares our life journey to music. He uses the analogy of the final note of a muscial score not being the point of the concert. So too, our life is not the final reward or success we attain. The goal is not the final note, but the harmony, rhythms, counterpoint, and joy which make up the entire song.
I had a great discussion about this topic with my kids after viewing this video. I encourage teachers to show it to their class in September and discuss the goals for the school year and how enjoying the learning process, instead of the final grade, is really the point of education. Enjoy your music: dance and sing along the way. Thanks to Share Yoga for their posts.
