A little bit of inspiration
Wow - who knew -
I read a little ditty in The Week's magazine that gave me a glimmer of hope for education:
"Born with visual and auditory disorders, Ali Cardaropoli of Plano, Texas, wasn't expected to pass elementary school. in fact, she is about to graduate high school - as class valedictorian. When she was younger, words and symbols were a jumble to her; she couldn't memorize the alphabet other than the letters A, I. L. But Ali bore down and studied for at least four hours a night. Now, not only is she first in her class, she is also about to direct a play she wrote, and will perform in two other school productions, one in Spanish. "You either give up on yourself or you go push yourself and say, 'I'm not going to quit,'"she said."
