Human Being - Being Human

Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think about
little Jamie Scott.

Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play. His mother told me
that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be
chosen.

On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after
school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement...
'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that will remain
a lesson to me....'I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'
