Vision...

(The Boy in the story)

     A teacher once told her student's mother that her 3 year old son is very artistic. The mother was surprised since she has never noticed that about him. She went home and asked her son to draw something for her. So he drew what looked like a boy, a ball and what seemed to be scattered lines all over the page, each with a unique color. What's so artistic about that? It is just something that a kid drew, she thought. Then she asked him about his drawing. He said "this is a boy playing with his ball". "What about these lines?" she wondered. "They're colored balloons in the sky". Of course the mother was amazed by what her son did. This story may seem cheesy and pointless, but it's really not. Think about how many times you've been laughed at because people didn't understand what you were doing. Or how many times have people underestimated you because they thought you're idea's were strange and unusual. Whenever that happens, remember that just because people don't see what you see, doesn't mean you're delusional. Remember that all the great people had a vision one day, and did not give in when others thought they were crazy.
