Tony loved basketball. One afternoon on his way to a basketball game, he was walking and dreaming about playing college basketball the next year. Suddenly a car hit him and he was thrown three meters into the air.

Tony woke up in a hospital room. When the doctor told him that both his legs were broken, he knew his college basketball dreams were over. Tony did what the doctors told him, but it didn’t work. After he left the hospital, Tony was sent to a health center.

A week after he arrived there, he met Sunny Chen. Sunny used to be a coach. His legs were hurt badly in a skating accident. Though he couldn’t move his legs, Sunny became a coach of a basketball team called the Suns. It was an on-wheelchair basketball team, because everybody on the team played from a wheelchair. Sunny invited Tony to join the game. Tony played badly, but for the first time since the accident, he stopped feeling sorry for himself.

After becoming a part of the Suns, Tony improved quickly. Basketball was like medicine for him. Tony was much better than before. When Tony became sad or angry, Sunny was there to be with him. The day before Tony left the center, he had dinner with Sunny. He asked Sunny how he could be so happy, even with his broken legs.

Sunny smiled and said, “It’s really quite easy. When you keep your face to the sun, the shadows fall behind.”
