Priscilla's 1st Post

I was out of town for all of last week and an just now getting around to posting all my reflections. Reading about Newton and how he was made fun of because he would rather stay in his room constructing things than go out and play outside and he wasn't the smartest kid in class. It made me realize that most great scientist were ostracized by society because they were "different" or a tad crazy. It makes me wonder if all people that have been considered weird or different by society destined to do great things. In a way it brings truth to the cliche "Be nice to nerds, you will be working for one someday." Also, his triumph over not getting the best grades and then working hard to better himself as a student. His childhood was truly inspiring that all things are possible.
