When we speak gently to young children they too will learn to speak gently. Childhood does not remain long, so we should teach children softly and mildly. We can get their love and trust only with kind words.

From this poem we understand that at all levels there are problems and sadness to everyone but with kind and gentle words they can be overcome.

We should speak gently because soft and kind words leave a deep and lasting impression. We can win peoples hearts by love and God too likes it and rewards us for eternity.

We do injustice to nature by felling trees, killing small creatures and causing urban decay.

Learning new ways to learn brings joy to us.

We should learn newer and more difficult things from our teachers.

Good and effective communication is to be able to speak and write to convey what we actually feel.

Inclusion is to value everyone beyond the boundaries irrespective of their differences. Inclusion is important to be successful in life.
