Hopes and Dreams

So many of the children I have met are just such an inspiration. Despite the circumstances they find themselves in they are holding on to their hopes for a better future.

I am so delighted to hear them talk of their future careers with dreams of becoming doctors, dentists, pilots, teachers, social workers and journalists.

One 14 year old boy told me that he plans "to stay focused on his goals to make sure he achieves success".
It is just incredible to hear such positivity. I cannot imagine that I would ever have been able to make a statement like that at 14 years old!

Many of the kids I have met are incredibly intelligent and articulate and they all display such strength and resilience. I can only hope that they find a life away from the streets to pursue their dreams and do not succumb to the dangers of street life.
