The flames that bear down
The un-natural height
Human-made
Machine-made
Game maker-made

I hurdle over a burning log
My jacket catches on fire
I stomp out the flames
Until there’s nothing left
This is all I have

My heart dropped when I saw the size of it. I knew it was the wave. I started to dog paddle to the wave and slowly I thought to my self Am I going to catch it or just fall in the water I knew it was time to start to stand up so horrified. My tremendous legs started to waddle and I saw a big dark soul in the water and I knew right away it was a fish a BIG fish. The big fish started to swim around me in a circle like sharks do. My mom was shouting so blaring I couldn’t concentrate I went back down on my stomach and gripped the surf board so hard it made horrifying marks on the board it looked like I was surfing on concrete. I got back on the surface and saw it was a dolphin wanting to play I went back out to surf but I fell in so I started to play cheerfully with the dolphin.

How did Oprah Winfrey become famous?

Oprah has told the story many times. But she was a determined child and wanted to be successful. She developed the love for reading (smart things, not stupid love novels). Once she became educated, she had the confidence to make choices and live out her goals.

The rest where opportunities that came her way. Like starting her own local show and later syndicating her show from the advise of Roger Ebert. Her life-time partner is in finance and guided her well into wealth.
