It’s a privilege to have someone share their story with you. An honor to be present with someone offering vulnerability. A blessing for them to share a hard-earned lesson learned with you.

That’s exactly what Adolfo offers with his story about growing up in gangs, losing his father at a young age and how it fractured his family, being the first of his family to attend and graduate college and how he’s worked to come out the other side a better human and father.

If the circumstances were slightly different, it’s possible Adolfo would have been another young casualty. In this story, he shares some details of connecting with a classmate who came from a much different life, and how a little perspective can help anyone in their most challenging times.
