A few years ago at the Seattle Special Olympics, nine contestants, all physically or mentally disabled, assembled at the starting line for the 100-yard dash. At the gun, they all started out, not exactly in a dash, but with the relish to run the race to the finish and win.
All, that is, except one boy, who stumbled on the asphalt, tumbled over a couple of times, and began to cry. The other eight heard the boy cry. They slowed down and paused. Then they all turned around and went back. Every one of them! One girl with Down's syndrome bent down and kissed him and said, "This will make it better." Then all nine linked arms and walked together to the finish line. Everyone in the stadium stood, and the cheering went on for ten minutes.

1. In a large pot, over medium heat, simmer the brocolli in the broth for 15 minutes. In a separate skillet, saute the onion in the butter or margarine for 5 minutes or until desired tenderness.
2. Add the flour to the onions and stir well, forming a pasty substance. Gradually add the milk and stir until thick. Add this mixture to the brocolli mixture in the pot and stir well. Then add the cheese, stirring until melted. Finally add the pepper. (Do not let the soup boil or the cheese will break down.)
