A boy’s new dream

We met Frank who is a scientist a few weeks ago, and we had a wonderful time with him. Meeting new people in your life is so interesting, in so many different ways; but meeting nice people is always the same, which is the pleasant and enjoyable moment you have with them. So many nice people we will meet in our life’s journey, how wonderful and fun it could be. I think about it, and appreciate it every time when I meet nice person.

A week later we got some mail from him, enclose with some photos and a four color pen for Sonny. That afternoon Sonny and I went to the upper chicken coop to let them out, we had a little conversation on the way back to house.

Sonny asked :” Mom, do we know any scientist ?”

I :” Yes, uncle Frank is a scientist .”

Sonny :” A real scientist ?”

I :” Yes, a real one .”

Sonny :” Wow! that’s so cool, we actually know someone is a real scientist.”

Await two seconds, he asked :” Does he have scientist jacket ?”

I :” What jacket ? Is a scientist have to wear some special jacket ?”

Sonny :” The white jacket, scientist always wear. ”

I :” Well, I don’t know. You can ask uncle Frank next time when you see him again. ”

That evening, he took the 4 color pen apart, said :” I’m investigate and learn to put the pen together. I’m going to be a scientist when I’m grow up.”

I couldn’t help,and said :” Good, mom will be much happier with you as a scientist than a fight jet pilot. ”

Right away he said :” Maybe I can be a scientist in army.”

Silent, no more words from me.

Think it over right now, a child can have many many dreams about what they are going to do, who they want to be, when they grow up. It’s so natural to them, seems build in their young life. As we grow older, we lose some dreams and gain some new ones; we always need good dreams to look forward. With no dream, our life could be like a dead water pond. Dreaming won’t hurt, it costs nothing, and it’s keeping your interest to  life, and keeping your heart stay young.

Have a dream, or have many dreams, it’s up to you. But sure to have a good one.
