Roots Before Wings

September 7, 2025

If we trace many of the world’s problems, they lead back to people who climb to power through performance rather than connection — hungry for control, blind to the humanity of others.

What if schools taught something different? Imagine if every child, no matter where they’re born, had core subjects designed to help them connect with themselves, see their worth, and understand their impact on others. For children who may not get that awareness at home, schools could become the place where real education happens — not just about math or history, but about self, community, and empathy.

That’s how we prepare the soil for future generations. Strong roots. Real connection. True education.
