From ancient times, the grandparents have said: "If you have the virtue, eat it" or " since you are a gentle parent, donate the virtue to your children". These are not only reminders about human morality, but also a testament to a silent law that rules life: The virtues of parents accumulated today will become a sustainable foundation for future children.
Children are born and raised not only inheriting their physical appearance and wealth but are also deeply influenced by the personality, behavior and well-being of their parents. That is an invisible inheritance, not measurable in money, but can help children overcome difficulties and confidently walk on the path of life.
Here are three things that seem small but are the root of nurturing virtue, helping future children grow up peacefully, kindly and happily.
Live honestly and fairly in all circumstances
In a society with many bonsai, maintaining a kind heart and directness is not easy. But that is the most valuable foundation for parents to pass on to their children.
People who live kindly, not greedy, not lying, not harming others, even if life is not abundant, are still respected and trusted by this generation. Children growing up in that atmosphere will learn to be upright, know how to distinguish right from wrong, understand that human value does not lie in status, money but in self-respect and good salary.
Parents living straightforwardly, not being shy about seeking immediate benefits, not being afraid of losing heart but easily falling into mistakes, will teach their children to understand their responsibilities and be responsible for protecting their rights. Many families are rich but their children and grandchildren are ruined by lack of discipline. On the contrary, there are families who do not propose to be rich but their parents live well, their children are self-reliant, supported by quys, and have many good opportunities.
Keep the blessings of daily speech
The father once said: "Words are not costly to buy, choose words to please each other." In life, words are the easiest thing to say, but they also easily leave the most profound consequences.
Parents who are often angry, bitter, and scold others not only hurt their children's self-respect, but also sow in their children the desire to study and be jealous. Over time, children grow up to be closed-minded, self-conscious or form a habit of barren behavior.
A father and mother who know how to keep their words, not defame, do not judge basedly, do not spread hatred, has invisibly remained a valuable example for their children. Every kind word, word of encouragement, and sincere praise is a seeding of goodness.
Children who grow up in a family with a loving atmosphere and kind words will be easily sympathetic, know how to respect others, and understand the value of kindness.
Do specific good deeds, nurture compassion
Many people mistakenly think that "providing children with virtue" is a distant concept. In fact, virtue is nurtured from very ordinary things: sharing a bowl of rice with the poor, supporting those who have lost their steps, keeping a promise to someone, or simply not being indifferent to the pain of others.
Parents know how to spend time doing charity work no matter how small such as supporting scholarships, participating in cooking charity meals, supporting lonely people, not being un haious, not destroying the environment, and are nurturing a long-term happiness for their children and grandchildren.
Those kind acts not only bring invisible blessings, but are also the "life lesson" that children can easily absorb. When parents bend down to pick up a trash bag and leave it in the right place, when mothers kindly need to help an elderly person cross the street, when their father gently forgiving the person who hurt them - that is the time when children learn about compassion.
Children who grow up in such a family will naturally understand that life is not just a race for gains, but there are also moments of stopping to give, to share.
leaving a favor is not a matter of one day at a time. It is a long journey, requiring parents to be patient, loving and willing to live a decent and straightforward life.
When parents not only teach their children by words, but also by their own personality and way of life every day, that blessing will silently nurture and support them firmly in all challenges.
Because the greatest legacy that parents can leave for their children is not money or a house, but an pure soul, a kind heart and a belief in goodness.
