RE: There's Always A Way

I didn't have the opportunity to go to kindergarten ...I became very stupid in the first grade of elementary school...in the third grade of elementary school, I clearly remember that I managed to win first place in class

I not only skipped kindergarten, but my first year of school I missed first classes in the morning because of family circumstances. I was lost after that. Until third grade. That year I blossomed. I remember my mother studying with me for the class spelling bee at the end of the year. I won--the winning word was 'chocolate' :)

I'm glad I had a rough start. It taught me that even people who seem stupid can be very smart. And anyway, it doesn't matter. They still matter as people.
