Quote by James A. Baldwin

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war love is a growing up.

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does

Summary

This quote challenges our conventional perception of love as a simple, linear process. It suggests that love is not just the excitement of new beginnings or the resignation of bitter endings, but rather an ongoing struggle and growth experience. Love requires effort, perseverance, and sometimes facing challenges head-on, like one would in a battle or a war. Love is an integral part of our personal development, teaching us important lessons and prompting us to mature as individuals.

No doubt to teach one's own children...takes special qualities. But these are qualities that many people have, or with a little help, can get. ...The home-schooling movement is full of such people, ordinary people doing things that they never would have thought they could do - learning the law, questioning the experts, holding their ground against arrogant and threatening authoritiues, defending themselves and their convictions... Seeing them, other ordinary people think they can do the same, and soon they do. This is why it may be a little misleading to speak of the homeschooling movement. Most people think of a movement as something like an army, a few generals and a great many buck privates. In the movement for homeschooling, everyone is a general.
