Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in my life, I stop and
think about little Jamie Scott. Jamie was trying out for a
part in a school play.
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."
