I love this mini saga (a story told in exactly 50 words) by Sterling.
The Child
The small child lovingly hugged his grandfather and shouted “I went to the zoo! I saw snarling lions, laughing hyenas, shrieking monkeys and the elephant has a long gray nose. You should see it!”
“I do see it” replied the old grandfather gleefully, though he could not see at all.

Sterling is our Vistage Chair and has been one of my mentors for a LONG time. I am fortunate and thankful for that and this contribution.
