This is an art, not a rubbish. Understand?

I saw a white plain paper on my table, untouched.

I thought of drawing something

Even knowing I'm not good at it

But, I don't care

As long as I tried

But, then, the drawing looked very worst

and it made me felt very bad

I tried to make a new one

and started to crumple the paper and threw it away

I'm dissatisfied with my work

I kept saying that 'this is not an art'

but 'this is rubbish'

Then, I tried to give another shot

Without realizing that I came out with the same product

'The rubbish'

Feeling very stressed and disappointed,

I kept drawing but it did not work

I realized that I wasted so many papers

But, the drawing still the same

Then, I gave up

I went out for a walk

Hoping that I can calm my mind

Yes, I felt very relaxed

Then, I crossed a kindergarten nearby

I saw a group of children

Having a drawing class outside their class

I went nearer as I saw their happy faces

I thought they must be enjoyed of drawing

And when I looked at their drawing

'It's not very bad'

Then, I saw a little girl

Sitting on a bench

She looked very happy

While showing her drawing to her teacher

Then I wonder

'Why this little girl feels very happy even her drawing is the worst among the others?'

Feeling very curious, I started to ask the teacher

Then the teacher said:

'Ana is actually a special student. Before this, she could never hold the coloured-pencil rightly . But, she never gives up. She keeps drawing. She feels very happy when she can draw something even it is bad. When she drew, she enjoyed it very much'.

'I mean, she must be very jealous when looking at her peers' drawing that look much more better that hers right?'

'Nope. She never showed it. Her goal is only to be able to draw just like normal people. For her, it's not the matter of drawing something which is very good just to get approval from others, but, her passion and attitude towards drawing. She feels very grateful when she is able to draw.

'But, all her works are just a bunch of rubbish!'

'You're wrong my dear. It is not a bunch of rubbish, but it is a real art that comes from a little girl who has a pure and passionate heart. You may not be able to understand it now. But, later you will.'

'I still don't get it.'

'It's simple. When you have a dream, but force to achieve it or you expecting people to praise your work, then, you fail to achieve your dream. But, if you do something wholeheartedly and enjoy the process, then, you will succeed.'

Still feeling unsatisfied and confused with the teacher's answer,

I headed home

I went up to my room

and I saw all the crumple papers on the floor

I looked at them one by one

Then, started to think the teacher's words

Maybe it's true

I'm too forced to achieve my dream

I'm stressed because of the bad drawings

For my age, I should be able to draw nicely

But, it turned the be the opposite

The next day, I felt very motivated

I took a pencil and a paper

and started to draw

I didn't think much

What I want to do is to draw

I felt very ease and enjoy while drawing

I had never felt this feeling before

As 15 minutes passed, I realized that I had finished drawing

I can't believe it!!!

I've done it!!!

It turned to be a very nice drawing ever!!!

Then, I started to understand what the teacher said.

Thank you so much!
