Just to build on that Justin Bieber theme from my last blog a little bit, I think his song "Never Say Never" would make a wonderful theme song for BECA.
Why?
It often amazes me what BECA students in Nicaragua achieve in the face of incredible adversity.
Some spend hours on their daily commute -- walking, waiting, and busing -- to and from school.
Others can't count on their family for moral support.
Still others seem to manage with woeful diets.
A few even continue to hold down tough manual labor jobs while studying full-time.
And I don't hear them complain very often. Their wide smiles never telegraph their realities.
Did I just say that?
Oh well. Allow me a sentimental exception. Bravo, becados of BECA.org. May my admiration for you NEVER weaken.
Oh! Walter thanks for the confidence you deposit in the family scholarship, if I was not a good scholarship in the past, now I try to be and you are one of the prinicipal source of admiration as a person, not a lot of his life, but
ReplyDeleteI know little enough to admire it.
