During college, I took a history class to fulfill a requirement.
The professor was a1 fellow with red hair. He would walk2 into the room wearing his winter coat, once not even3 the hat during the lecture. He could not feel free in class and controlled the4 just by looking through his glasses at his students.
So I5 a little game for myself. I would try to find something in his lecture to ask him an intelligent question about,6 me to pay attention. He was obviously pleased to have a question to answer. In fact, his answers were always7 .
I continued to do this every day and found myself actually enjoying the material. The professor seemed to become more8 and some of the other students even9 from time to time. My little game had saved me from being bored, as it was designed to do. And, I learned quite a bit about ancient world history. In spite of his strange10 , he was indeed quite an expert in his field.
On the last day of the class we gathered our11 and headed for the door. The shy, red-haired professor stepped directly in front of me,12 I reached the door, and put his hand out. He said, “I want to thank you for making my classes so interesting,” as he shook my hand warmly and13 for the first time. I was so14 . To me, it had been a pleasant way to pass the time. I had no idea that all of my questions asked in class had any effect on him or the others at all.
Each of us, through the things we say and do, and the kindness we can freely15, can have a great effect not just on our own experiences, but on those of others.
