John wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a big grin. "Did the kids like your coat?”I asked. "They loved it”, he said.
Over the next few weeks? John changed. He was polite,less argumentative,more thoughtful,and on the whole much happier. "Good dinner,mum," he would say every evening. Without a word of objection he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he start on his homework before dinner,John,who always put things off,said, "You're right. I guess I will.”When I mentioned this incident to one of his teachers,she joked that the coat must have changed him.
John and I both know we should never mistake a person's clothes for the real person within them. But there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see,for practising standards of excellence in thought,speech,and behaviour,and for matching what is on the inside to what is on the outside.
