This article summed up what it means to accept someone who is vastly different from you, and others. By taking the time to actually get to know someone can help both people involved. As Annie helped others see how much of beautiful person she was, she also helped reveal a world otherwise never known to others. Taking time to get to know someone no matter how different can be a healthy interaction.
Key Takeaways:
- One of my very first students as a special education teacher was Annie. She taught me so much about living a “feeling” life, and her parents were some of my greatest encourages.
- When Annie became my student, I was fresh out of college, just beginning my master’s degree in special education.
- The grown up version of Annie was as interesting and delightful and the younger one – although initially, I wasn’t sure what to expect.
“One of my very first students as a special education teacher was Annie. She taught me so much about living a “feeling” life, and her parents were some of my greatest encouragers. Over the years, I’ve kept in touch with this special family, but especially since Annie’s dad John was diagnosed with cancer seven years ago.”
