Aziz Rahman has taught many lessons to the people of Haragach, a small rural community on the outskirts of Rangpur in Bangladesh. But no one soaked in more knowledge more quickly than his 8-year-old grandson Mir Shithil, now a practicing physical therapist in Edison, NJ. Mir shares the tales of his greatest influence and how he learned to wield and not wield a machete while building bamboo shelters for his neighbors. But even more important, he learned to appreciate other people's perspectives and how to solve disputes with questions and compassion -- all by tagging along with his grandfather, a Bengali legend in his village revered as a teacher, peacemaker, wiseman, and humanitarian.
These are his lessons.
