Block #1 - A Healthy Place to Live and Learn

Together, Love and Order make for an altogether different learning concept than they are separately together they provide a way to build a Healthy Place to Live and Learn.

Parents who manage a home environment and daily schedule that only includes love without order may, for example,provide food that is not healthy all in order to show their children they love them. This is a perspective from only the child's young, less experienced view. Daily schedules that don't include a bedtime that is early enough to provide for enough sleep for learning at school is another example of how parents might show love to their children to make them happy. Without the order and guidance of providing enough sleep or healthy food each meal, however, children do not get the rest or nutrition their bodies need for growing and learning to reach their future potential. The wellness elements of Love and Order combine in a unique way that becomes a foundational building block of wellness what is easy to share and understand by both parents and children begins a common language between educators and healthcare workers. create healthier guidelines than when thought of separately. Parents who insist on Order without the element of love also miss the balance of providing the best for their children. Isn't it interesting to reflect on parenting styles on the continuum created by these two concepts and how one end or the other is not what is best over all for children and teens.

Pointing out how the combination of these two elements can seem obvious and unnecessary at first, however, when used as a guideline, families have a foundation for building a personalized version for making choices that help learn to them help themselves and make choices that allow them to reach their own unique wellness goals.

Together Love and Order combine to make a Healthy Place for learning and living. Just like two specific metals smelt together to make stronger and uniquely useful alloys, these elements of love and order combine to create a way to remember and provide steps to guide individuals, families, schools, work-groups, teams, and communities to create blocks for building a more balanced, better-functioning home, school, or community.

Love is to Order like Copper is to Tin, for Copper and Tin smelt well together...to make Bronze, a stronger alloy for surviving humanity's challenges and weather. Many people make a good living using this alloy from our earth with industries that buy, sell, make, and use, tools, weapons, jewelry, and cooking utensils.

Love and Order smelt well too to make a healthy home and school learning place for me and you.
