I find it odd that this story is without any comments. The story itself seems to be about a student up against undisclosed hardship, who has been humble enough to choose to focus on helping other people every day through little things that may be simple but make a lot of difference. In spite of what this student is faced with in their own life, they want to make other lives better.

I'm going to strive...

Christmas break had just arrived promising two weeks off. My intention for these two weeks was to clear my head of some problems I faced. I spent time with my family having as cheeriest of a time as possible. Anyways, there are too many times a day I’m left alone with my mind so I search for things to keep me busy. I decided to check my mail and read The Foundation for a Better Life’s daily quote (which always helps me out or gives me even a little hope in the day). I stumbled across the "Stories" section and decided to read on. The stories inspired me so much. I’ve always been one to WANT to help people in someway and reading some of these I’ve figured I can help a person in such a small way. Despite everything I’m going through now, I plan to take every piece of advice I read on this site tonight, and portray it throughout my life.
