There are a lot of inspiring people out there in this world, some alive today and some from times past. How do you think Thomas Edison felt when he invented the light bulb? Ill bet that was a dream cone true for him. How did Claude Monet feel when he finished a painting. Ill bet each painting was another dream come true for him. But the thing to remember is all those very big dreams began from somewhere, and that somewhere came from the hearts and minds of those who dreamed.

Nothing is impossible. Just read this story and find out! Someday maybe you can share your dream come true story. Or perhaps YOUR dreams are ALREADY coming true! (You can have lots of dreams, you know!)
