This just in from Martins mum marcia- thanks for sharing !!
-------------------------
Tuesday morning after the SoulKids weekend when driving to school, Martin asked his mum: “when can I go back to SoulKids?” and Marcia asked him why? So he said: “well, I have a story to share.
Yesterday at school, two of my friends wanted to do a race: who would reach the classroom first would be the winner. They started running but I just kept walking. But they were attacking each other, trying to prevent the other from succeeding.
They were keeping each other down, just like the Crabs story of SoulKids.
And although I just walked, I was still the first to arrive in the classroom!”
Marcia and her husband David were really impressed. “Amazing” she said to me, “you guys ( on SoulKids ) are making an impact!”
----------------------
How wonderful- stories change the outlook on life for SoulKids !!
The Crab story teaches children not to spend time and effort in pulling others down / being jealous, but to spend time on looking at your strengths and encouraging others !!
Well done Martin - you will go far and cross many finish lines in FIRST place !!
