15941 - The people with disabilities teach us many things
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias
The vital space is very often used as a concept referring to, a non-living space for the others.
Therefore, there is of course, no respect.
So what you should be aware of, is this: People with disabilities teach us many things.
Too many things.
And because we see it in the teaching field, through the special needs education, if you knew about them who are not engaged in this field, how many slaps in the face we get from people with disabilities regarding their behaviour, then you could conclude: I know everything.
And then he tosses a remark at you, and you don’t now where you are coming from. Try to figure that one out!!
While the child did not do it with a bad intention.
He just says it likewise, so simply, that it gets you thinking: look at this. . I never thought of it in that way.
Therefore, the extreme elements of Humanity, whichever they are, characterize Humanity as a whole, and this characterization gives a substance to normality and ultimately it creates a multiplicity, which is structurally much more complex, and for this reason in the end it is simple.
Humanity is simple. We just need to understand how it works.
Therefore, when you look at the anthropotechnics of Humanity, you will understand that people with disabilities are amongst the key elements that indicate the direction of humanism.
They do not live in the space of misery, but of humanity.
And it would be good for us to know that, because very often we get confused.
For example, which is a bit strange, it is a poet, who sees a beggar who stretches out his hand at him and asks for money, and then the poet bashes him up.
Then the beggar gets angry and bashes up the poet as well.
Then the poet gives him money saying: “Now we have the same value.Not before”
If we now have the looking down from the top factor, suddenly comes reality to put us back in our place and then we finally realize how much we learn, when we thought we were teaching.
This interaction is very important, because it is based on the human sense, which is a two-way relationship and at the time of the teaching, the teacher perceives things from the student, so sometimes the student could actually be in his position.
Therefore, the teacher to be also a student, and on both sides that factor to change alternately.
