On my way home one day, I stopped to watch a Little League base ball game that was being played in a park near my home. As I sat down behind the bench on the first-base line, I asked one of  the boys what the score was, “We’re behind 14 to nothing,” he answered, with a  smile.

“Really? I have to say you don’t look very discouraged.”

“Discouraged?” the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face… “Why should we be discouraged?  We haven’t even been up to bat yet.”
