A young blacksmith named Leo spent his days in the rural village located between gentle slopes. Each strike he made with his barely skilled, hands produced trembling as he worked with metal. The villagers spoke behind his back while they doubted his ability to perform as well as his father had done. Working throughout the night Leo relied only on his diminishing memory and absolute resolve to finish the task. During the middle of a battle near the village a knight watched his sword break into pieces. The knight rushed to Leo with the shattered sword in his possession. Leo formed the blade while his hands shook uncontrollably and perspiration streamed from his forehead. The sword blade did not reach perfection but it maintained its function. Victory brought the returning knight to praise Leo for his craftsmanship. The residents became silent spectators as they viewed Leo’s work with respect. Even though he was unskilled Leo relied on his courage and passionate spirit to compensate for his inexperience.
