19.To me,everyone has at least one talent,and while it sometimes takes you a lifetime to find,it does exist.
One sunny afternoon in 1953,we went out to the school's playground for our gym class.The teacher taught us various track and field events.I was a loser in all of them.Then came the javelin(標槍).Finally,when everyone had a chance to throw,the longest throw went about 30 yards.Now it was my turn.I raised the javelin over my head,took six quick steps and let it go.I watched as the javelin took off.As it went past the 50-yard mark,it was still going.Then people began cheering.Nobody could believe what little Orowitxz had just done.
The very next day I began practicing with it,and every day that summer-for six hours or more---I would throw it in a nearby schoolyard.With an eye to the Olympics,I continued to work out until one day I could go into a college.But not warming up properly,I tore some tissues in my left shoulder,so I gave up my dream of attending the Olypics.
Several years later,a co-worker,who was a hopeful actor,asked for help in learning his part.When I began reading the script(劇本),the same kind of fascination that took hold of me when I picked up the javelin appeared.Immediately I attended an acting school.That led to small parts in movies,which at last led me to another area-----directing.
I feel strongly that we must keep our minds open; we can't let ourselves be discouraged or depressed when the talent doesn't readily appear.Yet when it does,we must be prepared to get hold of it right away.
