this video clip did not remind me of the motorcycle accident I was in when a drunk traveling 65 mph hit me head on my motorcycle while I was cruising along at 65 mph, it didn't remind me of the huge uphill battle, knowing it would take a miracle to survive such an accident, no? What it did remind me of, was the greatest lesson about life, I learned from my wife Christine, by how she lives, not what she says. If I could put words to that now, it would be this: "LOVE as much as you want to be Forgiven, FORGIVE as much as you want to be Loved". Sak

Mr Wright you are one unselfish man who has taught each one of us the meaning of true love. To time and effort you put n to care for your son the way you do, is an inspiration to all of us and a lesson in life on humanity. I believe you are a Catholic. This is agape...the highest form of Love that Christ did for mankind. -

That using love as a guide to think outside the box affects not only us personally, but maybe more importantly, others who need our love. -

God has certainly blessed Mr. Wright with such capacity for, and understanding of love! How wonderful it is to see Mr. Wright using his gifts to reach out to so many. His familly and students know he is the "real deal". I am truly inspired (by just seeing 11 minutes of this man's life) to be "present" and loving with the people I spend time with each day. Look at how many more lives will be touched because of this video! -

That he took the first step to reach out to his students. That he thought about what makes sense for them in their lives and then works his lesson around it. -

That was just so full of love. Awesome person. -
Otilia
The power of true Love and it's impact on kids and young people's life. A Great teacher. Thank you for sharing it! -
Sue
whether he is in the classroom or walking down the street, Mr. Wright is a teacher.His daughter taught him not to take the words of limit from another, instead discover the possibilities for yourself and those you love. He allows himself to be vunerable to a classroom of students so they may find the courage to be vunerable to love also. When one man stands for truth and love we are all elevated. Thank you Mr. Wright for lifting us all up. Please tell your son Thanks for his acceptance of his life and the ability to smile and love back without bitterness only pure innocence. -
Ozymandias
Beautiful video, once again karmatube... This man is a good man & good father. Most people wouldn't have his strength & his happiness...But i don't think it's as a teacher he must be seen in this video, "just" as an exceptional human being. -

Tricia
This gentelman epitomizes the defination of a great teacher. He is extremely inspiring. His students understand and know who he is and they,too, are inspired by his having opened himself to who he is as well as making the learning 'hands on' and appealing to their minds. Wish more teachers realized this needs to be the case for every teacher to teach and know their students. -
C Bivens
Just an ordinary person doing extrodinary things. God is more interested in our character than our comfort. Mr. Wright's character is an inspiration in all aspects of his life. -

Josie Gulliksen
Everything, absolutely EVERYTHING. I am the mother of a special needs child. My son Nicholas is 15 years old and has Down Syndrome and I can completely relate with Mr. Wright. We have raised him as normal as possible and because of that and an incredibly supportive family and incredible teachers and therapists, Nicholas leads a fantastic life. And Mr. Wright's methods of teaching go beyond awesome! Thank you Zack for making such a wonderful film. -
Marsha Nelson
Just knowing that so many other teachers have the ability to be like Mr.Wright, may this be the gateway to others in the profession to open up and offer their special gifts of loving kindness to their students and families. God Bless, Mr. Wright. -

What inspired you about this video? The unconditional love that Mr. Wright has for all in his life. It is because of love that his son is proactive in the body that he has. His soul is beautiful!

Incredible, what a role model for those kids he teaches and for the rest of us as well, I just don't know how he finds the time in this modern competitive world to be such a Good Teacher / Good Dad / Good Carer but it surely is a message about Priorities & Love x D -

Thank you Mr. Wright & Mr. Conkle. I needed this inspiration oh so much right now. You will never know just how much. I care for my 24 year old daughter who has 3 bullets in her head. Sometimes I just feel so alone with my frustration. And that nothing will ever be the same. But you are right. LOVE is everything, it will overcome and control even the despair. -
jan
What a great video. I have a daughter with Spina bifida and it is the Love that she is that has kept her alive these 21 years even though the doctors said she would maybe live to be two. I thought how much can you teach a child before they reach two. What do they need to know about being here and all I could come up with is Love and laughter. Thank you. -

How wonderful that this teacher shared his real life story with these students. They have the opportunity to see a man being grateful for what his son can do instead of someone depressed by the cards dealt to him. These students will always find inspiration in Mr. Wright. -
