SECTION 2
In junior high school,/a teacher commanded me/to study and stop daydreaming about rockets.//
The teacher said/I was not a genius/and my dreams wouldn’t come true.//
He said,/“Anyway,/you can’t do it.”//
I was devastated.//
Sometimes/people criticize your dreams.//
Their words undermine your confidence.//
Instead,/making money may become your objective/to impress others.//
This is unfortunate.//
We can eventually do things/that we can’t do at first.//
When someone discourages you by saying,/“Anyway,/you can’t do it,”/that person hasn’t made an attempt.//
When we can’t see the future,/we give up.//
Society would be better/without/“Anyway,/you can’t do it.”//
