Don't let anyone steal your dreams

In a small composition class in a small country in the United States, the teacher’s essay topic for children is: "My ambition."

A child likes this topic very much. On his book, he quickly writes his dreams. He hopes that he will have a manor covering more than ten hectares in the future, planted in the vast land of green. There are countless cabins, barbecue areas, and a leisure hotel in the manor. In addition to living there, you can share your estate with visitors who come to visit and have a place to rest.

The written essay was read by the teacher. The child's book was marked with a big red "X" and sent back to him. The teacher asked him to rewrite it.

The children carefully looked at what they wrote, and there was no mistake. They took the book to ask the teacher.

The teacher told him: "I want you to write down your own wishes, not these dreamlike dreams. I want actual volunteers, not fantasy, you know?"

The children argued that: "But, teacher, this is really my dream!"

The teacher also insisted: "No, that is impossible, it is just a bunch of dreams, I want you to rewrite."

The children refused to compromise: "I know very well that this is what I really want, and I am not willing to change the content of my dreams."

The teacher shook his head: "If you don't rewrite, I won't let you pass, you have to think clearly."

The children also shook their heads, reluctant to rewrite, and the essay got a big "E".

Thirty years later, the teacher traveled with a group of national students to a beautiful resort, enjoying the boundless green grass, comfortable accommodation, and fragrant barbecue. He saw A middle-aged man came to him and claimed to be his student.

The middle-aged man told his teacher that he was the national student who failed the composition in the past. Today, he owns this vast holiday estate and has truly realized his childhood dreams.

The teacher looked at the owner of the manor and thought of his teacher's career that he had not dreamed of for more than 30 years. He could not help but sigh:

"For thirty years, for myself, I don't know how many students have lost their dreams. And you are the only one who keeps his dreams and has not been changed by me."
