We were standing at the top of a church tower. My father had brought me to this high tower

in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why.

“Look down, Elsa," Father said. I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square

in the center of the village. And I saw several streets leading to the square. See, my dear,"

Father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can't get to

the place where you want to go by one road, try another."

Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something

about the awful lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she could not believe

the lunches were as bad as I said.

When I turned to Father for help, he would not help. Instead, he brought me to this high

tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a plan.

At school the next day, I poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I

asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly. She tried one spoonful

and sputtered. “The cook must have gone mad!” Quickly I told what I had done, and Mother

promised that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!

In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson Father taught me. I began to work as

a fashion designer two years ago. I wouldn t stop working until I tried every possible way.

Father s wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square.
