Jean's father was a farm plane pilot in the little farming community in Northern California where she was raised, and1Jean was totallyattracted by airplanes and flying.
In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was Mrs. Dorothy Slaton. Mrs. Slaton was a2, demanding teacher with high standards and a low3 for excuses. She refused to treat her students like4, instead expecting them to behave like the5 adults they would have to be to succeed in the real world after graduation. Jean was6 of her at first but grew to respect her firmness and fairness gradually.
One day Mrs. Slaton gave the class a written7. "What do you think you’11 be doing 10 years from now?” Jean’s dream was to be a pilot like her father, but as the years went by, she had been beaten down by the8 and negative words she got whenever she talked about her career, so she unwillingly gave it up and wrote something else. Mrs. Slaton collected the papers and nothing more was said. Two weekslater, the teacher handed back the assignments,9 the students to face it down on the desk, and asked this question: "If you had enough finances and unlimited10, what would you do? Please write it on the11 of your previous assignment paper.”
When the students stopped writing, the teacher asked, "How many of you wrote the same thing on12 sides of the paper?" Not one hand went up.
The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean’s life. The teacher leaned forward13 her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you all. You do have14 abilities and talents. You do have access to the finest schools, and you can arrange plenty of finances if you want something15 enough. This is it! When you leave school,16 you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have17 you want if you want it enough.”
What her teacher said touched Jean so much! In the following years, she tried her best to realize her dream of becoming a pilot. Although it didn’t happen18, she finally became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever19 by United Airlines. Today, Jean Harper is a Boeing 737 captain.
It was the power of one well-placed20 word that gave that uncertain young girl the strength and faith to pursue her dream.
