John Robert’s father was a horse trainer. As a child, John often went from one farm to another with his father. Sometimes they didn’t have enough money to pay for food, but John still kept hoping to own a horse farm.

When he was in school, his teacher asked him to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. He wrote a seven-page paper talking about his dream of having a horse farm one day. He even drew a picture of a horse farm in the paper.

The next day he handed it to his teacher. Two days later, he got his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with some words “See me after class.” And the boy did and asked his teacher, “ Why did I get an F?” The teacher said, “This dream will not come true for a young boy like you. Owning a horse farm needs a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for a lot of things. There is no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added,“ If you write this paper again with a simple dream, I will give you a good grade.”

After school he thought about it hard. At last, he decided to hand in the same paper, making no changes at all. He wrote, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.”

Many years later, John had his own 200 acres（英亩）horse farm. His dream came true.

So don’t let someone take away your dream. Follow your dreams, no matter what they are.
