His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen. On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement.
"Guess what Mom," he shouted, and then said those words that will remain a lesson to me: "I've been chosen to clap and cheer."
Perhaps you have seen this story, as it has made the rounds, but I would like to pass it on. The lesson applies to each one of us. Even of we play a prominent in our current setting, in the grand scheme of life we all clap and cheer.
