The Beginning of a Dream

It happened during an ordinary visit to a museum. Standing before the boy was an orange flight suit. Once worn by the heroes who had ventured into space. The boy stopped in his tracks. Captivated, he could only gaze up at its towering form. Someday, he would wear a suit like this and journey into space himself. The boy clenched his small fist. In that moment, admiration turned into a dream. And perhaps it was on that very day that his future began to take shape.
