3 Lessons from 3 Friends
Recently, during a visit to New Missions in Haiti, I enjoyed some quality time with three friends. Catiana, Magdala, and Gloria attend the New Missions elementary school at the Bordmer location. We shared lunch together.
They taught me:
1. Friendship is fuel for thriving in life.
2. Role models are inspiration to live out your potential.
3. A smile is contagious.
You cannot change the world in a day, but you can change the way you see others. They reminded me that our eyes can see despair or hope. It’s not what they need that is the key priority. It’s what they have that is the opportunity. What they have is faith, hope and love to live a fulfilled life. They are advancing in their education and continue to help their Haitian families with gardening and sewing.
Who can you learn from today?
