The Power of Respect and Finding Your Voice: A Lesson from 'Cipher in the Snow'
In this episode, I share the poignant true story 'Cipher in the Snow' by Gene Meiser. This tale of a boy, Cliff Evans, who silently faded away amid a lack of recognition and respect, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of seeing and valuing every individual. I reflect on the lessons learned from the story, emphasizing the need for respect, understanding, and the impact of our actions on others. I also discuss the significance of finding and using our own voices, inspired by my experiences as a teacher and author. Join me in understanding the profound effects of respect and the courage to be heard.
