没有什么不可能 ?。加拿大有一个小男孩瑞恩希里杰克，有一天他在电视上看到非洲有成千上万的儿童没有水喝，他们渴急了就去喝残留在水凹里的脏水，甚至牲畜的尿！6岁的瑞恩瞪大了眼睛。他根本不相信：这世上居然会有人没有洁净的水喝，而且会因此死去。他难过极了。忽然，电视中传出来的一句话70块钱可以建造一口井让瑞恩激动不已。我一定要为他们挖一口井。他想，我明天就要带70块钱来。电视节目结束后，他迫不及待地向妈妈伸出手，妈妈，给我70块钱。面对瑞恩的请求，妈妈根本就没当回事。瑞恩只好沮丧地走开了。可是一整天，电视中那些非洲孩子因饥渴而死去的画面充斥着他的脑海。晚饭时，瑞恩又向爸爸妈妈提起了这件事。不，妈妈说，70块钱是不能解决那里的问题的。况且你也是个孩子，你没有这个能力！瑞恩把求助的目光投向了爸爸。这是个可笑的想法，瑞恩爸爸还想说下去，瑞恩哭着叫道：你们根本就不明白！那里的人们没有干净的水喝，www.rensheng5.com孩子们正在死去，他们需要这笔钱！瑞恩每天都要向父母请求，好像不给他这70块钱，他就没办法生活下去一样。瑞恩的爸爸妈妈不得不认真地讨论这件事，然后，他们告诉瑞恩：如果你真的想要，你可以自己赚，比如为打扫房间,清理垃圾，我们会给你报酬。瑞恩得到的第一个任务是吸地毯。干了两个多小时，经过妈妈的验收后，瑞恩的储蓄罐里多出了两块钱。此后，瑞恩经常利用业余时间做家务。渐渐地，家族里的人都知道了瑞恩的这个梦想。爷爷责备儿子说：为什么不直接给他七十元钱！瑞恩的爸爸说：孩子的想法太可笑，根本就不可能！这样做主要是锻炼他的劳动能力。他很快就会厌烦的。妈妈也附和道：这肯定是一个梦，一个6岁孩子的梦，一个毫无可能实现的梦谁会认真对待这种胡思乱想呢？可半年过去了，瑞恩非但没有放弃，反而干得更加买力了。每当爸爸妈妈劝他停止时，瑞恩就说：让我再干一会吧，我一定要赚取足够的钱，为非洲的孩子挖一口水井！瑞恩每天睡觉前都祈祷：让非洲的每一个人都喝上洁净的水。附近居住的人知道了瑞恩的梦想，都被瑞恩的执着感动了，纷纷加入了为非洲孩子挖一口水井的活动中。不久，瑞恩的故事出现在肯普特维尔前进报上，题目就叫瑞恩的井。随后，渥太华公民报又刊登了同样的报道。瑞恩的故事开始迅速传遍加拿大，不断有电视台要求采访。一周后，在瑞恩家的邮筒里出现了一封陌生的来信，信封上写着瑞恩的井，里面有一张25万元的支票，还有一张便条：但愿我可以做得更多。在不到一个月的时间里，有上千万元的汇款来支持瑞恩的梦想。5年过去了，这个梦想竟成为上万人参加进来的一项事业。这个普通的男孩儿瑞恩被媒体称为加拿大的灵魂。2002年9月30日，他接受了加拿大总督克拉克森颁发的国家荣誉勋章，同年10月，他作为惟一的加拿大人，被评选为北美洲十大少年英雄。如今，他的梦想已基本实现，在缺水最严重的非洲乌干达地区，有56%的人能够喝上纯净的井水了。有记者问道：是什么让你坚持做这件事情？瑞恩说：我梦想着有一天，非洲的人都能喝上洁净的水。这是个很大的梦想。但我知道，只要真心向往，并且努力奋斗，每个人都可以达成自己的梦想。我坚信，这个世界上没有什么事情是不可能做到的，事实证明，确实如此，只要你想做你就能做得到！励志故事：梦想和现实是存在差异和距离的，排除偶然的不确定因素，多数原因，是因为我们不敢也不愿意相信虚幻的梦想。但是瑞恩的经历告诉我们，在这个世界上，只要有所梦想，只要持之以恒，就没有什么不可能实现的愿望。
