Aim High

A Story:
It was the class after lunch.  Some students were lounging in their chairs as the teacher talked, making emphatic point after point. 

He paused, and looked over the half-lens reading glasses perched near the end of his nose. 

He cleared his voice, slapped his hand on the desk nearby and said, “Aim for the moon!”  His voice thundered in the small class room, echoing off the hard tile floor. 

“Aim for the moon.  And if you miss, at least you may land on the mountain top.”

The end!  But not really.

Love this thought:

Don’t fear failure.
Not failure, but low aim is the crime.
In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.”
~Bruce Lee
