Teaching Story - True Learning
by Life Positive
While the family was asleep, he silently led his young boy into a room that contained a clothes closet and told the lad to go into the closet to pick out some clothes. When the lad did so, the old thief quickly shut the door and locked him in.
After this, he went back outside, knocked loudly on the front door, woke up the entire family, and quickly slipped away before anyone could see him.
Hours later, his son returned home, bedraggled and exhausted. “Father,” he cried angrily, “why did you lock me in that closet? If I hadn’t been made desperate by my fear of getting caught, I never would have escaped. It took all my ingenuity to get out!”
The old thief smiled. “Son, you have had your first lesson in the art of burglary.”

Apply it: Remember that true learning comes only from doing it yourself. This is as true for burglary as for any type of learning.
