For most youth, your world is full of wonder and endless joy. The perfect world to be in for the ones living in the present, but there are some who look beyond this. For such a young age, they see not only what's here but what will be there. To some this means they will become some more, but for those who know this means they will be nothing more.

We start this story with a long lad, Mike. Now he was something else to his elders. He could read, write, and do so much so early but for his peers he was different. Different is no good for Mike. He was hurt, in class, in the play grounds, at lunch. No matter where he was no one like someone who was not like themselves.

Mike: Math class, yes! Maybe this time I will learn how to that graph. But then again at least I stay away in the back. Unlike my other classes.
*Group of fellow class mates come to Mike, with no good turn of events in mind for him.*
Jack: Sup nerd, did you get that homework done for me yet?
Mike: Sorry Jack I am not your maid, I will never just do your homework for you.
Jack: Oh Mikey, that's not I wanted to hear. Alright guys, lets show the nerd our new football moves...

Now Mike never liked sports, he never saw interest in doing activities for his school or who ever. But he always loved good to learn. He always the the way wonder and good in everyone and thing. Giving a lot of trouble with most of his peers. Though this is also the reason he meet his best friend John, out on a tall hill with a clear sky.

Mike: Well now if that Mars to the right Venus must be somewhere over here.
John: Try going a bit more to the right.
Mike: AH! Who are you?!
John: Oh I am sorry, I am John. I believe your in my science class. Your the kid the corrected the teacher on the temperature of the sun right?
Mike: Yes, that was a great day. But next time tell me if your going to right behind me!
John: Will do sir! Jeez man I did not mean to scare you. I did not know anyone came up here but me. But I should of known a nerd like you would be up here.
Mike: Wait hold on, Your John, in like John Books, the captain of the Jr. football team. Why would you want to come to star gaze?
John: I do more than sports Mike. I love stars. If professional football does not work, I would love a job at NASA. Now that would be a dream come true.

On that night Mike learned something he never thought possible. People can be more than what other's think of you, you can be whoever you want. Because that's what they chose, that's want they want. Knowing this Mike took this to heart, and looked at the world in a new way. A way he would have never known without some else to show him. So then he thought, what do other's think? What do other's know? What makes someone, themselves?
