A client who started college after he was with us for some time sent an uplifting email. In it, he said that he'd stopped by my office, but I wasn't there.. Anyway, he had come by to tell me that he'd passed his college math exams.
It's always gratifying to hear about success. However, in this man's case, it's especially pleasing.
For he had come from mean crack neighborhoods to TLC. His resume included years in prisons and jails. He finally came to us when he realized his lifestyle wasn't getting him anywhere.
He began working hard to change his life. He started attending meetings. He found a sponsor. When things got tough he summoned the perseverance to keep on.
As to the math classes, they were part of his college curriculum. And they gave him the most difficulty. Yet he kept on, utilizing the help of tutors and studying hard.
We like hearing of his success because it proves that our mission is working.
