• Stars have been the subject of many poems. Even simple poems like the one you've often said when you see the first falling star in the evening and make a wish." I agreed that I said that one often because I had so many things that I wanted to wish for. After all, I was only seven years old. "Even I sometimes look up when the day is done and the light is fading in the sky and look for the very first star so I can make a wish. Usually it is about being able to live a long and happy life so I can share times like this with you and my family." I smiled and looked up at him as he continued.
• "Everyone should dream of what the future holds for them. What would the world be like if nobody dreamed of being the person that discovered something special that would change life for the better for everyone on earth? I think life would be pretty boring if we didn't dream, don't you?" I nodded my head that I agreed but didn't want to say anything just in case he would stop telling me about the stars.
