Once there was a young man in a town. He liked puppets(木偶)very much and he became an apprentice(学徒) to a great puppet maker. However, the young man wasn't smart, and many people around him said he had no talent for making puppets.
However, he enjoyed it so much that he worked hard to improve his skills. Though he was hard-working, people would always find something wrong with his puppets. The young man didn't give up. After thinking for a few days.' he decided to spend all his time making just one kind of puppet. As long as he found a fault in his puppet, he'd throw it away and start again. As years passed, he was much better at making puppets than any other apprentice.
Finally, after so many years of work, he finished his puppet. And for the first time in all those years, he didn't throw away his puppet and he felt so happy. He became successful.
The man's experience tells us how important it is to keep on following your dreams. So never give up the things you really enjoy.
