Breathe

"Until I was 33, I didn't know what a classroom was like, what it was like to be surrounded by classmates and a teacher. I imagined it, only from what my siblings told me or what I saw in movies. It was always like a dream."
The memory, with a broken voice (half emotion, half melancholy) is from Lupita, sorry, from Guadalupe Marta Rivera Montoya, a graduate in Education.
This week, at the age of 51, this woman with cerebral palsy finished college and "I'm starting the long road to find a job opportunity. "I begin the long road to find a job opportunity, a chance to prove that I am capable, that I have been able to get my degree. I want to be able to give back now to my family and to those who believed in me, when even I didn't see how far I could go".
