His Greatest Dream
I was helping my son answer an autograph book one day…
Boy : name…
Me : (He read it and answered by himself! Very good…)
Boy : (slowly) nick…name. Mommy, what’s a nickname?
Me : That’s the name everybody calls you.
Boy : But my name and nickname is the same, do I have to write it twice?
Me : yes, for some other people, it’s not the same, so they ask that question.
Boy : (continuing to read slowly and answer… address, birthday, likes, dislikes and so
on)hmmm… greatest dream… but I don’t remember my dreams…
Me : No, not your dreams at night. it means, what do you want to be when you grow up.
Boy : hmmm… (thinking really hard and for a long time)
Boy : I want to be a billionaire!
Me : Umm, don’t you have any other higher goals?
(I was thinking of other lofty aspirations like having solid career or a loving
family…)
Boy : I got it! I want to be a trillionnaire!!!
