George the milkman was wise in allowing you to exercise out all y our frustration in chopping wood, and loving in paying you the $6 you lost so you could do over your mistake. I will remember this story when I next encounter somone who made an error.

George was a compassionate and wise man… not only did he stop himself from giving a lecture, he provided an opportunity to the 8 year old boy to redeem the loss… equally important he did not let him have the 6 dollars for free or as a loan… [no enabling no provoking… empathy and an opportunity to make up]Excellent story and beautifully related Mr Kerry.Thank you for sharing it.

They bring back lessons and principals that resonate today as well as they did in 1954. Your ability to recall details and draw meaning from different events is amazing, and I truly appreciate that about you.
