  It was another frustrating day. I came home from school, changed my clothes and got ready for work. I worked at a local restaurant in town.

  I went to work feeling down. It's the same thing over and over again, dealing with customers who complain about their food-how the piece of pie that they are served is too big or too small. Three elderly ladies walked in and sat by the windows.

  I was working since 5:00 pm. and we were quite busy. But these elderly women were watching me as I was working really hard to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers.

  When they were finished with their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me for a while about school, how I was doing, which grade I was in and what I planned to do in the future.

  As they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a confident and gentle voice, "You are going places." They left the restaurant and I was pretty much in awe. I had tears in my eyes, because they gave me a reason to believe in myself. They picked my spirits up from being down and out and gave me a reason to keep on working hard and to give it my all.
