Birthing the Future Bookmark

A beautiful laminated bookmark with an insightful poem written on it:

When we ponder the nature of being human
spirit embodied in matter
and when we respect the power
and knowing of every birthing woman and baby and honor their vulnerability,
Then we help birth a better future
and a happier, more peaceful world

-Suzanne Arms

It’s hard not to take a few moments to ponder those thoughts after reading that poem. The miracle of childbirth, parenting and the opportunity to share wisdom with your newborn child. It’s a beautiful thing and this delightful poem is written beautifully by a talented poet, Suzanne Arms.

This bookmark makes a truly meaningful gift for a mom or dad of any age. Of course, soon-to-be moms and dads will enjoy it as well. Even more so, as they may not have fully realized the gravity of what is about to happen in their lives and the opportunity for giving their children wisdom and knowledge about life and the world around them.

The bookmark is a great gift for those who like to read books, magazines or even do their favorite crossword or soduku puzzles! We even like it for using it with cookbooks! It’s a great way to take a break from a hectic day and re-realize what’s really important in life and in our day. We place so much importance and stress on the little things in life that seem so dominant and important, but it only takes a simple little poem like this to remind us what life is really about. Our children, as well as their future, are all in our hands and empowering them with a knowledge of peace and respect is the very best gift we can give to a child and their future.

Whether this bookmark is for you, a friend or a family member, it’s sure to be treasured for a long time to come.
