Hampl had a very profoundly moving experience. It is not often that you see a couple that really have that truly amorous love for each other. Yet, I don’t believe it was necessarily the intense love for each other that moved her, I think it was the intense love in general that moved her. Not many people have such an intense love for anyone or anything, and when you find someone who is so passionately in love with someone or something, it gives you a certain joyous feeling inside that makes you want to love someone or something like that too. Sometimes, you find the most wonderful things in the most horrible places, and an observation of love that can make a lady forget about the atrociousness of a Greyhound bus, would be the most powerful thing.
I had a similar experience like this in math camp when I was younger. It was the summer going into sixth grade, and school had just let out. As I’m not very fond of math, I was clearly very averse to spending a week of my summer studying math. The math camp was at an elementary school teacher’s house in Terre Haute. She had a fairly average house in an average neighborhood. When I walked in the door, all of the other kids looked somewhat like me - tired, apathetic, and bored. I had my mind set on this week being the worst week of the summer before I even walked in the door. When I took a seat in a chair next to some other girls, the teacher passed out snacks. First of all, I had never even had a math teacher that allowed me to eat in class. They were all very strict and rigid, but this teacher seemed enthusiastic and nice! I started to wonder if I was really in math camp, but then she got out the whiteboard with all the numbers on it, and I was reassured that this was really math camp. The teacher started out with a math game. I don’t even remember the game; I just remember the look in the teacher’s eyes, and her utter enthusiasm about math. She looked like this was the happiest moment of her life. When she started explaining the material, you could tell that this was the most interesting, fun thing that she could possibly think of doing. She was not just doing a remarkably good job in her position as “math teacher.” She was genuinely enjoying herself. There was no acting or artificial teacher – like behavior. The lady was what she was – a woman who delighted herself in doing and teaching math. When she worked the first problem, it was obvious that working math problems was what she had an intense, passionate love for. Her eyes twinkled, and she seemed to move both her hands and feet in a melodic manner as if she were dancing as she approached the equation. There were drab walls all around us with plain wooden furniture, but in the middle of that, was a lady teaching to others what she really loved. Her enthusiasm never died. With every problem, every day of the week, she had the same look in her eyes, and the same passion for math that she’d had from the first problem, and on.
At the end of the math camp, we sat in a circle, and she told us something that is still, and will forever be, fresh in my mind. She tried to tell us something she couldn’t explain. She was trying to explain to us her love of math. She struggled for about five minutes before she finally said, “Math may not be what you love, but find something you do love. There’s something out there for everyone, you just have to find it.”
This just goes to show you that true love for someone or something is profoundly moving in a way that is impossible to explain. It makes you want to have something that you love so much. No matter what happens, and no matter where you are, you still have that intense love in your heart that never goes away, and the people who are lucky enough to have found that, are the ones that are truly living life to the fullest.
