All he had left now was a sheet of the beautiful brown paper Pa had brought back from his last sailing trip.Youve been quiet, Pa said, Could I see your picture?Garrison handed over his sketch. Pa studied it, then looked at his son. Youre ten now, eh? Garrison nodded, hoping Pa wouldnt say that he was too old to be fooling around with pencils and paper.When I was ten, I wanted to work on my fathers ship, Pa said, When Thomas was ten, he asked me to let him plant the corn.Garrisons throat (嗓子) tightened. I know Im not like either of you. Pa looked at the drawing again.No, you are like both of us. You work hard, like Thomas. And youre like me, too. I have wandering feet, but you have a wandering mind. We need to see things differently.Garrison frowned. Id rather love the land, like Thomas, or the seaPa patted his hand.

It would be like asking us to stop breathing, wouldnt it?Garrison considered this, then replied, No, sir. Not quite like breathing. If I couldnt draw any more, it would be like someone took away my voice. He hung his head.

Your voice is important, Garrison, whether its out loud or on paper. And speaking of paper Pa smiled. Take a look in my bag.Garrison reached into the bag and found a sketchbook.
