A Great Adventure For Learning

Knowledge was quite proud of himself while arriving at school that warm sunny morning. He had gained some new information that he was sharing with everyone. In the teachers lounge, Knowledge was very excited while he told Wisdom, the principle what he had learned. Wisdom, calmly listened, quit sure Knowledge should have been a little more discerning and careful with this new information. The bell rang and Ms. Understanding took one last sip of her coffee and said she needed to get to her class.

In the middle of her lecture, Learning raised his hand to ask a question. Ms. Understanding, the teacher, turned and asked what he wanted. Learning gazed out the window as he asked, what you are telling us makes a lot of sense, but I do not know how… Action interrupted while jumping to her feet, with excitement in her voice, she said that we can all meet Experience, a friend of mine after school to test it out together, then we will all know for sure!

Learning shuttered at the thought and said, maybe we are not ready yet, maybe we should learn more first. Excuse, Learning’s brother agreed, and said they both needed to go home right after school. Faith couldn’t stay quite any longer either, we are all afraid of the unknown she said, but if we do not believe and try, we will never really understand. Meanwhile, Fear was shifting in his seat, all this talk was making him quite nervous, he wanted nothing to do with this endeavor.

The next morning Ms. Understanding asked her students what they had learned. With smiles on their faces they all agreed it was a great adventure. In fact, Faith, Action and Experience are all my best friends now, said Learning. Excuse rolled his eyes and was quite sure it was all a bit silly. Then the students looked around the class and asked the teacher why Fear was not present. She said that he would not be coming to school today. However, a new student has joined us; say hello to Hope.

   Yes, I wrote it. Came from a lot of months of thought trying to figure out the connection to all these emotions.
