I used to watch her from my kitchen window.She seemed so small as she struggled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground.The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during break.I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball.I watched in wonder as she ran circles a- round the other kids.She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net.The boys always tried to stop her but no one could.I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.
One day I asked her why she practiced so much.Without a moment of hesitation she said, "I want to go to college.The only way I can go is to get a scholarship to save money for our family.I am going to play college basketball.I want to be the best.My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don't count." Well, I had to give it to her ?she was determined.I watched her through those junior high years and into high school.Every week, she led her school team to victory.
One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head in her arms.I walked up and sat down in the cool grass beside her.Quietly I asked what was wrong. "Oh, nothing," came a soft reply, "I am just too short." The coach told her that she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team ?much less offered a scholarship —so she should stop dreaming about college.She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment.I asked her if she had talked to Father about it yet.She told me that her father said those coaches were wrong.They just did not understand the power of a dream.He told her that if she truly wanted a scholar-ship, nothing could stop her except one thing —her own attitude.
The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was offered a scholarship and joined the college team.She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of.
