Life is Relative

"There are no absolutes for something so relative as a human life. There is no such thing as 'best' in a world of individuals." - Hugh Prather


Prather invites us to be fully present in the moment. He calls us to live in the now, to see our children as one-of-kind individuals and to refrain from comparisons and evaluations. Grading children on a curve wounds the soul.
