I believe this video is a good example to learn the values what life is all about. It's not about money or how you look! It's about love, care, appreciation and respect!
Faith is one of the greatest gifts we can give to our children and we must teach them how to care and give to the once that are not as fortunate as we are. Children are more likely to follow what we do than what we say. Live our life the way we want our children and stepchildren to live. Practice family devotions at all times.
Compassion is when we try to understand someone's feelings from their perspective, and then we desire to help that person. Newborn babies react instantly to the distress of others by crying themselves. They are still too young to understand how to help others, but the empathy is there.

Compassion develops as a child's brain and thinking abilities develop, but parents can have a big influence on the resulting empathy their children have. If they encourage empathy, their children will be more empathic to others. If this is neglected, children get out of practice and may stop being so empathic.

Thank you,
Fatima

Dolly Parton Coat of Many Colors Lyrics

Back through the years
I go wonderin once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness
And I just couldnt wait to wear it
And momma blessed it with a kiss
Chorus:

My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

And oh I couldnt understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes

But they didn't understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me

  • Thanks yemsom for the video editing .

    and most importantly great thanks to Dolly Parton for this nice song.

    I'm using this song in my class to teach how to write a story.

    God bless us all.

  • Excellent song.

  • Excellent, Excellent, Excelleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeent song.

  • your description is so true ... we are rich because we are loved and who we are, not by possessions which aren't important. More people should listen to the meaning of this song and take it on board

  • Najib Cha, of Morocco, the husband of my friend Susan Anthony posted this on my FB page. I had not seen it, nor do I remember Dolly Parton singing it, but it is certainly a wonderful message.

  • =My coat of many colors That my momma made for me Made only from rags But I wore it so proudly Although we had no money I was rich as I could be In my coat of many colors My momma made for me= Mothers make us rich!

  • Fatima, I read your description before I watched the video, and I'm so glad I did. This is a great video for Christmas time, or anytime, showing what is important in life. I was particularly impressed with your comment about living how you want your children to live. If anyone else is listening to this video and hasn't read the decription, it's well worth it.

    Thanks and well done Fatima, Merry Christmas

  • VERY Nice!!!
