The most exceptional person I have ever met is my daughter. She has various challenges, but whenever another child is crying or hurt she is the first one there to offer comfort. She shares willingly and helps without being asked. I love and admire her for her spirit. I have seen her in martial arts classes just blocking kicks and punches because she has absolutely no desire to hit her opponents. I doubt she'll ever win medals for fighting. Yet she knows what to do, because she always wins medals for patterns. I have seen wild birds land within arm's reach of her to eat seeds. Something about her I guess that allows creatures to sense peace in her presence. It is amazing what a fellow can learn from a ten-year-old.
