AHMED'S PREDICAMENT



You’ve probably read or heard about
the 14 year old boy who made a
digital clock and got arrested by the
Police after his teacher mistook his
homemade clock for a bomb. Awful,
right?
Now here’s the good part:
The news got on social media and
people from all over the world
condemned the act and gave massive
support to Ahmed for his ingenuity.
But it didn’t end there.
Ahmed got shout-outs from President
Obama, presidential hopeful Hillary
Clinton and Facebook CEO Mark
Zuckerberg invited him to Facebook.
Ahmed has also received invitations
to work at Twitter and Reddit, been
offered a seat at the Google science
fair and a scholarship to NASA’s
space camp – just to name a few.
Thanks to his teacher!
But what if Ahmed’s teacher had not
called the Police on him? Ahmed’s
clock and 13 other inventions by him
may have gone unnoticed. The world
may not have known there was a 14
year old genius somewhere in a
Texas high school.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
When life throws a stone at you,
stand on it.
