Mission Impossible

Today yet again another brush with some of the infinite problems that we have to face everyday.

There are people who insist that interest should be the top of the agenda when we are talking about character building and the teaching of values. What interest should we talk about when there is even no responsibility in the first place?

But then environment and culture does play a very important part in the shaping of hearts and minds, and it is the very thing that we hope to be instilling in the students' minds.

Having the heart to do things is just not enough.

It's the shaping of the environment.

It's tough.

It's requiring more than just the effort of 1 or 2 persons.

It takes identification of the same goals.

It takes an awful long amount of time.

But it is possible.
