In a big amusement park, there was a group of students sitting on the ground.
They were listening to a speech after spending a happy morning there. At the beginning of the speech, the speaker told them a story about himself. "When I was in middle school, our class was once asked to write about our dreams. That night I wrote down my dream of opening up an amusement park. However, my teacher gave me an F and told me to write it again," the speaker said. "Her reason was just that it was impossible for a poor boy to make such a dream come true. I went back home and asked my father what I should do. He told me to make the decision by myself. So I decided to make no changes.‘You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream,'I said to my teacher."
"And what happened?" the students asked. All of them were anxious to know more about the story.
"This is what is happening now. You are listening to my speech in my dream park," said the speaker. "I told you the story in order to make you know one thing: follow your hearts, keep your dreams and never let others destroy(破坏) your dreams."
When the students were leaving the park, their teacher went over to the speaker. "Thank you, Mr. Black. I think my students have learned a lot from your speech. Here I have to say sorry to you. Some years ago. I was once a dream stealer and stole a lot of students' dreams, including yours. Luckily you had enough gumption and didn't give up your dream because of me," she said and then left.
