For two weeks, my 10-year-old daughter faced hard times which, thankfully, she expressed to me, but I was filled with much sadness. She didn’t understand how anyone could say such hurtful words to her, repeatedly. Filled with confusion, her eyes reflected despondence.
Everything changed when she received the words of encouragement, compassion, and encouragement from a teacher. My favorite moment was when the teacher encouraged my daughter’s heart, saying, “You are a star who, when you come in, radiates light to everyone.” As we thanked her, we embraced each other in tears.
On that day, I was able to introduce Mother’s words of love for peace to two female teachers by sharing the emotion.
