That day was like any other day in his life. After school Michael walked past the shop in the street corner. He stopped to some shoes, 
and he felt sorry for himself. He wanted to have a pair of shoes for his birthday. He walked away sadly and thought of what to tell his mother. He knew she would give him if she could. But he also knew very well she had money. He decided not to go home , as he looked worried and his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat down on the grass. Then he saw a boy in a wheel chair. He noticed that the boy moved the wheels with his hands. Michael looked at him carefully and was to see that the boy had no feet. He looked at his own feet. “It is better to be without shoes than feet.” he thought. There was no reason for him to so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was more lucky in his life.
