Kahlil Gibran, writer, poet, and visual artist, offered parents sage advice on understanding the role of a parent who brings life into the world. In a world that too often overlooks the tenderness and simplicity of children, Gibran reminds us that children are a gift.

In his great book The Prophet, Gibran says, "You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth." Read on for more of Gibran's inspiring thoughts on the journey of parenting.
