What a powerful quote! 💡 Maria Montessori's words remind us that teaching isn't just about sharing knowledge – it's about cultivating character, nurturing spirit, and embracing growth.

As parents and teachers, we are not just educators; we are guides, mentors, and role models. Our own growth and self-reflection directly impact the lives of children.

Let's ask ourselves:
- What am I doing to nurture my own spirit?
- How can I cultivate patience, empathy, and curiosity?
- What habits can I develop to support my own growth?

Montessori's approach encourages us to see children as capable, curious, and worthy of respect. To embody this, we must work on ourselves too.
