I am in total agreement with SS because I felt the same way in reading this piece. As we discussed in class somethigns and stories are just inspiring and this was one of them for me. He got through life by trying to better himself and that is never a bad thing. I wish I could read as much as him and enjoy it as much but the drive for me is not there because I have to read so much for my classes. I love inspiring stories because they do make us feel so so even if just for a minute.I do though see nothing wrong with being a "scholarship boy" as I am a scholarship student myself and because it is made so much eaiser for me to go to school I love it all the more. I thinkk if I had to work all the time to pay for it I would not want it as much. I too motivates me to be eager to lear and there is never anything wrong with wanting to learn more. I do however think that it is not necessarily the money that hinders the child from learning at the secondary level but it is just a crutch and I find it a bad one. You can learn if you want to and you are the only one that holds yourself back. All in all I was inspired and saw myself as lucky in a way that I hadn't before.
