book 4 lesson 25

look at the stars

once there was a girl who married a young man. her husband worked for the government. after they married he had to work for two years on an indian reservation. she went with her husband, but she didn't like the place where they lived. she didn't like the weather. she didn't like the food. she didn't like the people.
one day she decided to write to her mother. she explained that she missed hamo, she missed her friends, she missed her comfort. her mom wrote her back and said: "my daughter you have two options during these two years in the indian resernation. you can look at the mud or you can look at the stars.
the choice is yours."
inspired with her mother's words she decided to learn the indians native language, culture and customs. she developed a feeling of love, respect and appreciation for the people. thanks to her mother's honest answer, she enjoyed her time with her husband in this new place.
