An old man lived alone in Minnesota. He wanted to spade his potato
garden, but it was very hard work.
His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man
wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation:
Dear Son,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant
my potato garden this year. I hate to misdo the garden, because your
mother always loved planting time. I'm just getting too old to be
digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be
over.
I know you would dig the plot, for me if you weren't in the prison.
Love,
Dad
Shortly, the old man received this telegram:
"For Heaven's sake, Dad, don't dig up the garden! That's where I
buried the GUNS!!"
At 4 a.m. The next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police
officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any
guns.
Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what
happened and asked him what to do next.
His son's reply was:
"Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad It's the best I could do for
you from here."
NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO DO
SOMETHING DEEP FROM YOUR HEART, YOU CAN DO IT,. IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT
MATTERS NOT WHERE YOU ARE.
So if u have a strong will in your mind you can achieve anything.
"Impossible is a word in the fools mind"
So what do u say?
Are you a fool or a genious???????????????????

Wow! the son was soo smart to do that. I'm glad the father will now have to be able to plant potato. I agree with you that if there is a will, there is a way. Strong determination and believing in yourself that you can do it will make things possible.
