Before the Literacy Alliance, I was rooming in a house of filth. I was looking for peace and needed to clear my mind from all the misery.
Attending my reading class helped lift the misery. Through the Literacy Alliance, I can explain myself better. Struggling through words created misery my whole life. But when I got focused on my studies, I could speak clearly.
Now, I go to the library, and I use the dictionary. Going to class and being around positive people has helped me. Now I have knowledge and know how to stand. My English has come out better.
My advice? You gotta get real with life. Knowledge. Education. High School Diploma. Be independent. Have goals. Be responsible for yourself and others. Go somewhere. Get peace. Spread that peace to those around you.
