高中那会儿的某一天，我看见她坐在草地上，头埋在臂弯里。

我穿过街道，坐到她旁边的清凉的草地上。我轻轻地问出什么事了。"Oh,nothing."Cameasoftreply."Iamjusttooshort."“哦，没什么”，她轻声回答，“只是我太矮了。”

原来篮球教练告诉她，以五英尺五英寸的身材，她几乎是没有机会到一流的球队去打球的更不用说会获得奖学金了所以她应该放弃想上大学的梦想。
ShewasheartbrokenandIfeltmyownthroattightenasIsensedherdisappointment.
她很伤心，我也觉得自己的喉咙发紧，因为我感觉到了她的失望。Iaskedherifshehadtalkedtoherdadaboutityet.我问她是否与她的爸爸谈过这件事。

她从臂弯里抬起头，告诉我，她爸爸说那些教练错了。
Theyjustdidnotunderstandthepowerofadream.Hetoldherthatifshereallywantedtoplayforagoodcollege,ifshetrulywantedascholarship.他们根本不懂得梦想的力量。他告诉她，如果真的想到一个好的大学去打篮球，如果她真的想获得奖学金，
Thatnothingcouldstopherexceptonething-herownattitude.任何东西也不能阻止她，除非她自己不愿意。
Hetoldheragain,"Ifthedreamisbigenough,thefactsdon'tcount."他又一次跟她说：“心中有目标，风雨不折腰”。
