Looking on the Bright Side


As I was driving home from work one day, I stopped to watch a local Little League baseball game. As I sat down behind the bench on the first-base line, I asked one of the boys what the score was.

"We're behind 14 to nothing," he answered with a smile.

"Really," I said.

"I have to say you don't look very discouraged."

"Discouraged?" The boy asked, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Why should we be discouraged? We haven't been up to bat yet."
