“You read fairy tales …. 
)
You do not know how happy man you are! ”
Message with such a content I got from a friend. I allowed myself to paste it and quoted in, because, as the Anglo-Saxons say, “it made ??my day”!
Indeed, since I’m back in Ukraine, I started reading stories to little children! And although I was terribly afraid, because I read them in Russian and not as Pope, that is phonetically written, but just as Cyril and Methodius precepts!
I have the impression that I read worse than those little kids who listen to me. But how they are listen! With open mouths, and.. Minds! Because it happens to make a fatal mistake, but no one interrupts me, and not even laughs! Forgiving creatures!
(All the malicious commentators be warn, that after each reading I ask them, if they still wants me to come and read further – so far the answer is one, the choral DA )
To take it further, I asked them to draw about the story. After few months, I already have material for a nice gallery!
Thus, the sample of Donetsk kids arts skills:
Tale to which drawings are related, is called “Cat – traveler” by Gianni Rodari.
Generally, the guy wrote a great fairy tales. Some of them ends with three alternative ways. Children can choose, which they like best! Although in my group, one boy wrote his own!
I would recommend them to read to all parents! May the whole Poland / Ukraine / World reads to children!
Post Script:
When I was riding this day on marschrutka (for reading fairy tales!), having in mind just received mail from a friend and thinking to myself about it and all the vanities of the world, my attention got caught by a piece of paper glued by a gray tape over the door (inside , out was – 20 degrees) with a poem printed on it:
Не зли других, и сам не злись,
Мы только гости в этом мире.
И если, что не так – смирись.
Будь поумнее – улыбнись!
Холодной думай головой,
Ведь в мире все закономерно:
Зло излученное тобой,
К тебе вернется непременно!
Мы не сказали про добро.
Добро ведь лучше нам, чем зло.
Давайте излучать добро,
Чтоб возвращалось к нам оно.
Омар Хаям.
Such a signs the ABSOLUT (and not the Swedish one!), gives me constantly! (BTW The author of this poem is recommended to your consideration!).
And answering to friend, I will say that it is interesting that our own happiness we often do not notice (After all, there is nothing that pleased us more than misfortune of others) until it won’t kicked us in…
I am trying to be aware of my personal happiness as much as possible, especially because it is partially planned!
