Beschreibung
I must confess that I often tell these stories from around the world and learn from them still. My hope is that teachers who read these true short stories from my life as a learner and a teacher will listen to them in terms of their own sacred profession, which invites their seeing and attending to their own stories that have such potential to teach. If you find some of the stories familiar, it is because some have appeared in my other books. Or perhaps you have been by my fireplace when I told one of these lovely tales. These stories are not about me, but I am in all of them. They are about the good, wise, generous, kind men and women who are the heroes and heroines of each tale. They entered my life and enriched it beyond words. These stories are not in any sequenced order: this is not a memoir. I am simply grateful to remember and retell them. I connect each story to an axiom and a principle or practice of Dialogue Education (www.globallearningpartners.com). If the learning tasks after each story are useful to readers, I am delighted. I hope these learning tasks will connect your life stories to mine. I welcome them and wait to learn from the stories of your life.
