Father's Dreams: Jasmine's Story

This is a story about a little girl named Jasmine, which is related by none other than Jasmine herself. Jasmine relates her own story of triumph at a sport she did not really care to participate in but did to please her father who had big dreams for her to develop skills in this particular sport.

My Father's Dreams

My father always dreamed that I would be able to ski really well. I do not care for skiing at all but since my father wanted me to learn so badly I decided that I would put forth all my effort to attempt to learn since it meant so much to my father. While I am a good skier, the really difficult part to skiing in my opinion is waking up so very early on such cold mornings and having to get dressed and go out into the cold. My bed is so warm and cozy in the cold mornings and I would much prefer to lie in the bed under the pile of covers instead of getting up and feeling my feet on the cold floor.

The Day Begins

However, once I do get out and moving, the cold air is exhilarating and makes me feel very alive just as my father's dreams for me to be a skilled skier are very much alive.

The children my age informed me that there was to be a race next week but I did not tell my father about this but instead just worked on the slopes. I went ahead and registered for the race. I spent a great deal of time skiing the second slope, which was the slope on which the race I had entered would take place.

IV. Preparing for the Race

The second slope was a little difficult for a child my age but I knew that if I could win the race that was to take place the following week that my father would be thrilled. Just as any little girl, to please my father was my highest and most sought after accomplishment. I skied the second slope repeatedly preparing for the race. Why, I even was skiing that slope in my sleep for many nights prior to the race. I was a strong and skilled skier but many children had been skiing not only longer than had I been skiing but they also….....
