With determination and a lot of practice, he hiked some of the most challenging trails. His story shows that with the right attitude, we can overcome any obstacle in life.

Another great one is 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens. It shows the transformation of a miserly man through the visit of three spirits. It's a story that promotes kindness and the spirit of Christmas.
A funny true story is about my neighbor's dog. The dog loves to chase squirrels. One day, it chased a squirrel up a tree and then sat at the bottom barking for hours, as if it was waiting for the squirrel to come down and continue the chase. It was so funny to watch the dog's determination.

One day a duck walked into a store and asked the clerk, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk said no. The duck left. The next day the duck returned and asked, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk again said no. The duck left. The third day the duck walked in and asked, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk got angry and shouted, 'No! And if you come back in here again asking for grapes, I'll nail your webbed feet to the floor!' The duck left. The next day the duck walked in and asked, 'Do you have any nails?' The clerk said no. The duck said, 'Good. Do you have any grapes?'

Here is one. A little boy was at the zoo with his mother. He saw a penguin and asked his mom, 'What's that?' His mom replied, 'That's a penguin. It's a bird that can't fly but swims very well.' The boy then said, 'It's so silly. I bet it wishes it could fly like other birds.'

A mom might encourage her child to pursue their dreams. Like my friend's mom who supported her daughter's passion for painting. She bought her all the art supplies she needed and even set up a small studio in their garage for her to paint in. That's a great example of a positive mother - child relationship.
