Question

Have you kept the secrets in your heart? Have you tried to hide anything from others? Is it all right if you don’t tell the truth? You’ll find the answer after reading the following passage.

Marie was Joey’s mother. There was something wrong with her son’s feet. The doctor told her that Joey would be able to walk like others, but would never run very fast. At the age of eight, Joey ran around with the children in his neighborhood. His mother never told him that he wouldn’t be able to run as fast as the other children. So he didn’t know.

In the seventh grade, he decided to try out for a runner on his school team. He ran more than any of the others in order to be chosen. Joey practiced running four to five miles a day —— even one day when he had a high fever. Although Marie was worried about him, she never told him he couldn’t run with such a high fever. So he didn’t know.

Two weeks later, Joey made the team. Marie never told him he couldn’t do it. So he didn’t know. He just did it.

Although sometimes we don’t tell others the truth, it can make them optimistic and meet the challenge(挑战) of their lives bravely. Why not go for it?
