Follow Your Dream

  

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a

horse ranch in San Ysidro. He has let me use his

house to put on fund-raising events to raise money

for youth at risk programs.

 

The last time I was there he introduced me by

saying, "I want to tell you why I let Jack use my

house. It all goes back to a story about a young man

who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who

would go from stable to stable, race track to race

track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training

horses. As a result, the boy's high school career was

continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he

was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to

be and do when he grew up.

 

That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing

his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote

about his dream in great detail and he even drew a

diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of

all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he

drew a detailed floor plan for a 4000 square-feet house

that would sit on the 200-acre dream ranch.

 

He put a great deal of his heart into the project
