Epilogo

I loved how Savater finished his writing. I think as a parent I would have said the same to my kids. I agree that by expressing his feelings in that way he's passing on how he lives ethics himself and at the same time he is able to transmit it to other generations.
I think we all try to do this the same way not just as parents but as teachers as well. Teaching with the example, speaking our minds whenever we have the opportunity to do so in front of a class in order to share experiences which might be profitale for others to know. As he mentions life is short, and it is a gift to be on the living side, and be willing to live life the best we can, choosing the best options we can think of and be open minded towards the future.

How reflective you sound in this entry, Silvia! ;-)I'd say if Savater has managed to lead you into this mood, then he's done a great job!

Living ethically is not an easy task for sure, and I'm glad to see you nevertheless look forward to integrating this area into your professional development, and helping your learners do it as well...

All the best,
Gladys
