Mario's Mission
Mario woke up with a simple mission.
He said, “I need to find a television for my home.”
Mario started his quest. He walked a mile until he found a television for sale.
The television was big, but his passion gave him strength.
The trip back home was hard, and he did it slowly. But Mario knew that with vision, passion, and action, any mission can be a win.
And with that, Mario's mission was complete.
