In Need of Teaching
To attack those who have need of teaching is to fail to learn from them.
Everyone has something to teach us. Without exception.
But when we judge or look down on someone, when we feel any sense of resentment or anger or frustration with another, then we are missing out on a perfect learning opportunity.
What we, and everyone, can learn from each situation is that we are united. The only differences between us are superficial and meaningless.
This line from A Course in Miracles helps put that into perspective: “To attack those who have need of teaching is to fail to learn from them.”
When we teach love, that’s all we’ll learn and experience.
