A
Lesson In Heart
A lesson in "heart" is a little, 10 year old girl, Sarah, who was born
with a muscle missing in her foot. She wears a brace all the time. She came
home one beautiful spring day to tell her Mom she had competed in "field
day"-that's where they have lots of races and other competitive events. Because
of her leg support, Mom's mind raced as I tried to think of encouragement for
Sarah, things I could say to her about not letting this get her down. But,
before I could get a word out, she said "Daddy, I won two of the races!" Mom
couldn't believe it! And then Sarah said, "I had an advantage." Ah. Mom
thought. She must have been given a head start...some kind of physical
advantage. But again, before any comment was made she said, "Daddy, I didn't
get a head start... My advantage was I had to try harder!"
