Dear friends, I particularly liked this story. I hope you enjoy it. > >A few years ago, at the Seattle Special Olympics, nine contestants, all >physically or mentally disabled, assembled at the starting line for the >100-yard dash. At the gun, they all started out, not exactly in a dash, but >with a relish to run the race to the finish and win. All, that is, except one >little boy who stumbled on the asphalt, tumbled over a couple of times, and >began to cry. The other eight heard the boy cry. They slowed down and looked >back. Then they all turned around and went back. Every one of them. One girl >with Down's Syndrome bent down and kissed him and said: "This will make it >better." Then all nine linked arms and walked together to the finish line. >Everyone in the stadium stood, and the cheering went on for several minutes. >People who were there are still telling the story. Why? Because deep down we >know this one thing: What matters in this life is more than winning for >ourselves. What matters in this life is helping others win, even if it means >slowing down and changing our course. >
