“That living word(w-a-t-e-r) awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy set it free!” ˜ Helen Keller
Helen Keller discovered that she could learn. Before this discovery, she’d known only darkness. Before this discovery, she’d experienced grief and sorrow through her deafness and blindness. Her deafness and her blindness were once her limitations. But something inside her wanted to learn and her special teacher seemed to pull her out from the bottom of a well. Her learning to read and write was the bright light that she had experienced. We all experienced feeling limited in some fashion. Helen was a tenacious learner. Even in her frustration, she didn’t give up in spite of her limitations. It is nice when things begin to click after long and grueling hours trying to understand something.
