Segment 2: The caption inscribed on Maria Montessori’s grave in the cemetery of Noordwijk Aan Zee, Netherlands.

Usually on a grave, you may read a message made of some words or a sentence expressing the life and work of a person who did a lot for others, who sacrificed or did important achievements. Here, on her grave, we can read an invitation to children in form of a message of hope, something which is not yet there, or something already in construction.
