I knew a boy whose mother passed away when he was too young to remember her. All of his life he was tossed around from family member to family member due to his father going in and out of jail. The child faced many challenges during the course of his school years both emotionally and economically. Despite those challenges he has gone on to college, joined a very positive fraternity, and has a promising future ahead of him. His favorite line is: I had every reason to fail, but I chose none.
Passion for a good life! Many would have given every possible reason to fail. The potential is in us, therefore we are agents unto ourselves.
ReplyDeleteVery touching story.
