the teacher becomes the student.
My daughter recently returned from a mission trip. The goal of the ministry was to aide in serving the homeless population in a large city. My daughter, who is in considerable pain from an injury to her leg, and wearing a knee immobilizing brace said that they best part of the mission trip was busing tables. “Why,” I asked her, “was that the best part of the trip?” “Because it gave me a chance to talk to the people.” was her reply. Now my daughter is normally reserved around people she doesn’t know, so this is a huge statement about how profound the experience was for her. I couldn’t be more proud.
