One day, some children got together and were talking to each other. They all lived in wealthy families.

　　One girl spoke confidently, "My family is very rich. My parents studied a lot."

　　One boy was listening to the girl and said, " 'If your name ends with '-sen', you will be miserable.' Well, I feel lucky I have no '-sen' at the end of my name."

　　Then, the girl spoke again. "You're right. I have a friend whose name is 'Martsen', and his family is so poor."

　　Another boy said holding up his head confidently, "My father is in a high position. Everybody is afraid of him."

　　At that moment, one boy was listening to this conversation behind a door. He was poor, and his name ended with '-sen'. He could not mix with the children because he was so poor.

　　'This is so sad. I can never be a great man.' He envied all the children in the room.

　　As time went by, the children all grew up. A millionaire was living in the town. A lot of people wanted to visit his house. "This is such a wonderful house. Whose house is this?"

　　The owner of the house was the poor boy. The boy grew up to be a great sculptor. Even though he was not born rich, and his name ended with '-sen', the boy became a great man. The children in the room were all wrong.
