- Description
- Life often doesn’t turn out as you had hoped. The world isn’t always a fair place. Some teenagers I know, just accept their lot. Others work hard to make even small dreams come true. This issue is full of stories about young people. They are not pop stars, famous TV heroes or powerful leaders. They are ordinary people like you and me. But they have something in common. They are all determined to make something of their lives. Meet Patrick from Uitenhage, he’s a basketball player who’s off to Japan. Meet Nomnikelo, at 23 she’s a domestic worker. But she’s determined to become a nurse. There’s Lucky. He was forced to leave school in Std 4. He couldn’t find a job, but now he’s making money from scraps. Meet Lerata, she never believed in love. Then one day after a school debate. You’ll find stories about teenagers overseas too. Read about Hodan, Emadul and Van Lac. They are all struggling to start a new life in London. When we read about Lucky, Nomnikelo or Lerata, we can learn something. We admire the way they have got on with it, faced new challenges. But we can also learn from them - about ourselves. We all have it in us, to change our world and make the most of our lives. Enjoy reading!
