Believing That You Can
think there is no better achievement for men other than that.
The most important thing for me right now is to learn to
speak English so that I can get a job. It is my responsibility
to provide a good economic stability for my family. My
other ambition is to create songs that reach all people and to
convey a message of peace and joy.

Sacrifices and Mountains
Everybody should have an ambition or a goal that they
would like to accomplish in life. My ambition is to finish
with my education at Dunbar Community School by
receiving my GED. In addition, I will continue my
education at Edison State College in order to obtain a
degree as a nurse. In everything in life there is some
sacrifice. If I want to have a successful life I need to make
more effort by spending more time and energy studying. To
fulfill my goals (as I have mentioned earlier) I know that, as
a foreigner, it is going to be a high mountain to climb but
with faith I will do it. I will reach the top. I do need a good
job in the future where I can make an adequate amount of
money for the future family I hope to have. To be able to
speak English well will be a big part of the success I want
for myself.
When I am married and have children I would like to
own a nice house, a decent car, and nice furniture. However,
these items will not come without a good job. Without a
good education I will never be able to succeed with these
ambitions. In conclusion, my goals and ambitions are to
follow the path for this reality through education and to do
my best to continue the progress to achieve the goals for a
secure future. This is also the advice I would give to others.
