They say, you should not climb if you’re afraid to fall. I say, it doesn’t matter how many times you fall, as long as you learn to stand up and start climbing again.
Literally, even as young kids, it is our nature to climb and reach things no matter how high and hard to reach. You would notice how common it is for kids to be climbing the crib, bed mattress, chairs, and often before they can stand and walk properly. As kids become older, they start going for the harder challenges like hard to reach benches, tables, and later trees, walls, rocks, etc.
In life, it’s the same… it’s the drive and determination to reach one’s dream that keep us climbing. We may fall a lot, get bruised, and sometimes even wounded or worst, crippled. But, it will never stop us from dreaming and climbing the walls, mountains, rocks, and high cliffs of challenges that comes our way, just to reach our ultimate goals.
So, never discourage a child to climb, rather encourage him to do better and be careful not to fall. Teach them how to be cautious, and to always keep their protective gears on. Just in case they would fall, they would have zero to minimal injury to take.
