My Self Identity

When I was young, my family faced difficult times. I  knew I was not wealthy after the economic downfall and my father's death, our family was so poor I could not eat. As hunger began to set it, my thought was directed to my stomach instead of my books. My older brother began working which alleviated my families suffering, allowin me to focus on my intellectual pursuits. Due to this situation, I became more concentrated on education and social reform, including working on different areas in the community to improve people's lives. For these reasons, I tried hard to fight with poverty and sought to better the next generation so as not to suffer as I had suffered.
