There is something about village children


Natural dexterity manifests as a human response to adaptation


Here she is, moving in extra-agile ways, exuding more than her age. Yes, she is a little kid, but her awareness, sense of stimuli, and social response/participation are heightened

She moves quite quickly; her participation in the moment is multi-expressionary. She exhibits a consciousness that coherently syncs with her adult counterparts. She is giving, receiving, suggesting, and looking out. She acts quite mature, but this is not usually the case with her urban counterparts. This is not to emphasize a contrast in technological savviness between the two demographics, but rather to highlight the intricacies governing individual grounding.

Village children are more in tune with the environment than their urban counterparts. This is a result of the close contact they have with nature and their conscious or unconscious interactions with the elements. Village children are more likely to have farm experience and to have interacted with various leaves, learning their uses while overhearing their parents’ conversations. Through assisting their families with daily rudimentary village chores, these children develop an awareness grounded in nature and a self-tuning toward adaptation and sustainability. Yes, village children often participate directly in preparing the food they eat.

It is most likely pertinent that the dexterity I noticed in village children manifests as a result of their being given more space to occupy, encouraged to participate in their biological and social sustainability, and allowed the freedom to cultivate instincts of self-preservation on their own. All of these factors together foster an early sense of awareness in their mental development, which, over time, creates a stronger foundation for the formation of their individualism.

Village children exhibit a certain wholeness in their being and an unapologetic authenticity in their expression. These virtues are essential for the development of a healthy personality, benefiting both the individual and the collective.


With self-awareness, wholeness, and authenticity, there are no bounds to what we can achieve.
