That boy will grow up to be someone

Once upon a time, a small boy named Alex lived in a tiny town in South Australia. He was always disruptive in class so he was beloved by his fellow students but drove his teachers crazy.

One day his mother went to check out how he is doing at school and the teacher told her honestly that her son is simply a disaster.  He wouldn’t listen in class, never did his homework, and failed all his tests.  Alex was the most difficult child she has had to deal with in her 30 year career.

The mother could not accept such a feedback and she took her son out from that school yelling “My boy will grow up to be someone!”. She then moved her and Alex to the big city.

25 years later, that teacher got a cardio disorder and all the doctors have advised her to go for an open heart operation which only one surgeon could perform.

Left with no other choice she did it and the surgery was successful.  When she opened her eyes, she saw a handsome doctor smiling to her, being under anesthesia effect, she wanted to thank him but could not talk, in turn, he was staring at her face which started turning blue, she was raising her hand trying to tell him something but looked as if she was struggling to breath.

The doctor was shocked and was trying to understand what just happened, till he turned back and saw our friend Alex working as a cleaner in that hospital who was standing on her oxygen tube.

If you were thinking that Alex became a doctor, you have been reading too many motivational stories.
