flying dove

As I got older and started working full time as a teacher, I began to appreciate how much I had learned from my parents bringing me to work. In addition to developing practical skills, it inculcated in me a passion for work, for taking on tasks both menial and exciting, challenging and fun. And it helped me recognize how much work is connected to other facets of life, and to discovering who I am and God’s plan for my life.

Watching my parents at work shaped me in surprising ways.
