I didn’t have the best start in life. My parents were very poor. We lived in a very small house and life was a struggle. But then one day that all changed. My life suddenly got a whole lot better.

I had always been jealous of the other kids at my school. Whatever they wanted, they got. They all had the trendiest clothes and the latest new phone. I didn’t even have a phone. All my clothes were handed down from my older sister. Most of them had stains on and my shoes had holes in the soles.

The other kids at school would laugh at me and call me names. I just wanted to be like them. My Mom and Dad both worked hard. But they didn’t have jobs that paid well.
