A small boy said to his father, “Hey, dad, watch!” He then threw the ball into the air and swung
the bat fiercely, only to miss.
“Wait, dad, watch this one,” he called. And for the second time he swung and missed.
“Here’s the one, dad!” as he swung fruitlessly again.
Suddenly the ball called out, “Three strikes and out,.” “Gee dad, aren’t I a great pitcher?”

Isn't this our challenge for life?
