My supports

In my life I have many different supports that mean everything to me.....


My Parents

They support me in everything I do even when they do not agree. They are rooting for me as well as being my shoulder to lean on. My parents worked hard so I could have a good life, and a even better education. I love them for that. It is not very often when a family does what my family does for me. Even when they are not physically doing something they are a constant voice in my head that has showed me what it is to be responsible that is a lesson that has taken me very far. I  am not afraid of failure, but I use it as a learning lesson.

My friends

They are a support to me because I do not live in the same city as my family so they have become my local shoulders to learn on. They encourage me when I may want to give up. They keep me company, they feed me, and they care so much about me. It is very important to be a part of a winning circle of friends.





Without any of my supports I would be lost. I do not have children so you need positive people in your life to love, and that love you. I thank god everyday for the people that are in my life.

My Connections To Play

You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.”
― Plato

It is a happy talent to know how to play.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
 This toy allowed  to imagine what you were seeing. It was at the zoo or at the circus. We looked at shots of movies, and imagined what happened next.

                                                                                                These toys of the 80s opened up free play either you played alone or with a friend

Playing to be a doctor was fun. We learned to role play. We imagined we would be doctors as we grew up. We dreamed, and had aspirations.



 

 

As a young child my parents, and other adults encouraged play. When we got together with our friends our parents would tell us to go somewhere, and play. We enjoyed it we normally wanted to get together just to play with each other. Playing was the role that a child played.

 

Play in 2014 is so different. Kids do not like to go outside, and play that lack the wont to be physical. Children also lack imagination. If you take a modern day group of children, and say go play they probably will not know what to do. In the past we would play tag, chase each other anything to have fun, and laugh.

 

Throughout life play is essential. As a get older the appropriate amount of play time changes. We have find appropriate times to be playful because we have things that we are now responsible for such as career, home, and family.
