Ben said, "Involve me, and I learn."

Jack’s Winning Words 11/21/13
“Seeing is different from being told.”  (Kenyan Proverb)  A Ben Franklin proverb puts it this way.  “Tell me, and I forget.  Teach me, and I remember.  Involve me, and I learn.”  A friend told me that he learned his “handyman” skills from his father who showed him how to use tools to fix things.  Each of us can probably name a skill that we have because someone let us “do” something as a child.  My dad played catch with me.    ;-)  Jack
