Monty Roberts owns a horse ranch（牧馬場） in San Ysidro. He told us his story. As a senior, he was asked to write a  36 about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.

That night he wrote a seven-page paper  37 his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great  38 and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the  39  of all the buildings.

He put his heart into the  40  and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that   41 , ‘See me after class.’

The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I  42  an F?’

The teacher said, ‘This is an  43 dream for a young boy like you. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. There’s no  44 you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will  45 this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”

The boy went home and  46 it. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to  47 your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very  48 decision for you.’

Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the  49  paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my  50 .’

Monty now owned a 200-acre ranch. He had  51 his plan for a 4,000-square-foot house.

Two summers ago that same school teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on his ranch for a week. When leaving, he said  52  , ‘Look, Monty. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream  53  . During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams.  54  , you had enough perseverance not to give up on yours.’”

Don’t let anyone steal your dreams.  55 your heart, no matter what.
