Though he had doubted he could do what his father did, Ezra learned that he could do more than he thought.
"It's been a big change in my life—the way I think, see things, and do things," Ezra says. "I realized I can do what my father did."
Ezra has become more like his father than he believed he could. He has followed in his father's footsteps as a fisherman—and as a teacher.
The second week Ezra went fishing, his friend Fetu asked if he could come along and learn. Ezra has taught Fetu how to fish, and Fetu has helped Ezra with his work and kept him company.
"I'm grateful for the opportunity to teach others as my father taught me," says Ezra. "It makes me happy to know I am not only a fisherman like my father but also a teacher."
