Story about Jamie

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."
