How many of us feel that we have passed many great opportunity and now is too late to reach our dream? This nice story will open our eyes…
That day was my first day to college, when my lecturer introduced himself and asked all of us to acquintance one another. Someone touched my shoulder and I saw an old lady with smiling face talked to me. “Hi Charming, I’m Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can I hold you?” I smiled back to her and enthusiatly said ” Of course”…I was so curious to know what was her reason go to college in that age. She answered, “I always expect to go to college, and now I can”.
We then became good friends. We went everywhere together and talked about everything. I was always interested to listen to her story. She was a very attractive person. Everyone in the college like her and she easily being friend with them. She was so energic and that way she made life goes wonderful.
We invited her to speech in our soccer club. With all her simplicity, she shared with us about her secret to stay young, happy and succes. Learning, laughing, and having vision. She said that old people regret for what they’ve never done when they’re young instead of what they have done. Than she closed her speech with a song.
That year Rose was succesfully finish her college. A week after her graduation, she was passed away while she slept. More than two thousands people attended the burial of very pleasant woman which have tought us through her life that there is no late for our dream.
