I have a friend named Monty Roberts who possesses a horse ranch (大牧场). He was the son of a horse trainer who would go from ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy’s high school career was continually   21   . When he was a senior, he was   22    to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he   23   .

“That night he wrote a seven –page paper, describing his goal of someday    24    a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail. He put his    25    into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he    26    his paper back. On the front page was a large F with a    27    that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class.

The teacher said, “This is a(n)    28    dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. Owning a horse ranch    29    a lot of money. There’s no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “    30    you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will

    31    your grade.”

The boy went home and thought about it    32    and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is very important    33    for you.” Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the    34   paper. He stated, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my    35   .”

Sitting in the middle of his 200-acre horse ranch, he told me he    36    had that school paper. He added, “Two summers ago that same schoolteacher    37    30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week.” When the teacher was leaving, he said, “Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was    38    of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dream. Fortunately you had    39    enough not give up yours.”
