Humble begginings


Is it to much to ask for a young black man to excel, without hardship? I have seen the lowest of lows, and have worked my way out, but am I really out of the darkness of hardship? It is a  lifestyle embetted and given to me because hardship is the only way to be humblee, to be appreciative. Me beatng the odds of a typical black 21 year old male came from my humble begginings. Making sure I keep my GPA high, and my faith in God higher cam from my humble beggingins. Sleeping from hotel to hotel, and shelter to shelter gave me the desire to obtain my own apartment, and that desire for a place to call my own came from my humble begginings.We learn from experience, and I have to say that I am proud to have learned lessons from my humble begginings.
