Ellen loved running through her neighborhood, dreaming of becoming a famous athlete. One day, her best friend, Joao, said, " - You can't be an athlete, Ellen, that's too hard!" Ellen felt sad, but her heart was full of faith. She knew she had to prove Joao wrong. Ellen promised herself that she would try her best, no matter what.
Ellen decided to join the neighborhood race to start her journey. But when she arrived, the older kids laughed at her. " - You're too small to win," they teased. Ellen felt tears in her eyes, but she held onto her faith keychain tightly. She knew she had to be brave to show them what she could do.
It was the day of the race, and the sky was gray and rainy. Ellen's shoes were soaked, and she slipped in the mud, falling behind. " - I can't do this," Ellen whispered to herself. She watched the other kids run ahead and felt her dream slipping away. Ellen's heart was heavy, and she thought about giving up.
Ellen sat on the sidewalk, feeling her dream was too far away. " - Maybe I'm not meant to be a famous athlete," she sighed. Just then, her neighbor, old Mr. Silva, walked by. " - Ellen, you have a strong heart," he said. " - Don't let one fall stop you." His words sparked something in Ellen.
With Mr. Silva's encouragement, Ellen stood up with renewed courage. She tied her shoes tightly and joined the race again. " - I can do this," Ellen told herself, feeling the strength in her legs. She ran with all her heart, passing one kid after another. Her faith keychain jingled with every step she took.
Ellen reached the finish line with a big smile, feeling proud of her courage. The crowd cheered, and Joao ran over. " - You did it, Ellen! You were amazing!" he exclaimed. Ellen knew this was just the beginning of her journey. With faith and courage, she was ready to chase her dream of becoming a famous athlete.
