Life lessons from the Amish.

-


 The Amish culture and tradition can provide us with some lasting life lessons that are applicable in any situation. It is a culture centered on hard work, a commitment to family, and an understanding of how to coexist peacefully with the modern world.


The Amish display an admirable work ethic. They are among the most productive and self-reliant of cultures, yet they remain fiercely devoted to their families. From their earliest days, Amish children learn the skills they will need to make their living. This can range from the refinement of farming techniques or carpentry, to the mastery of animal husbandry and horsemanship. Through their labor, the Amish contribute significantly to their community, and each family takes responsibility for the collective effort.


The Amish also demonstrate a devotion to family values that is often lost in our modern culture. The healthcare and education of their children is of the utmost importance, and extended family members live in close proximity which creates an environment of mutual support. The extended support network of an Amish family can provide enough companionship, counseling and support to make difficult situation more manageable. The dedication to family is echoed in their commitment to their faith, as well, with the church serving as the beating heart of the community.


The Amish also demonstrate that compromise is possible between modern society and traditional values. The Amish choose to live separately and make their own laws, but they also recognize that to make their way in the modern world they must invest in technology and other trappings of the 21st century. In this way, they balance their need to remain true to their faith while also allowing their communities to progress. This principle of compromise helps us to recognize that a middle ground is often possible in our own conflicts, a valuable lesson that can be applied in any situation.


In conclusion, the Amish culture and tradition offers us some valuable life lessons that go beyond their traditional practices. Through their commitment to hard work, a dedication to family, and an understanding of that compromise is always possible, the Amish show us the importance of remaining true to our values while also adapting to the changing times.
