Every year I got financial aid for college. Every year they paid for room and board, meals and classes. Every year I was told I had to buy my own books. Every year I would stand outside the bookstore and watch others buy books,bags some even walked out with tv’s ( that was a college in the hood). Nevertheless every year the schools would tell me to pass without books. I spent almost twelve years in six different cities going to almost 12 different colleges with no books. Yet my grades were always above C so I could get my pell grant. I worked full time to pay off my tuition. I would walk into a class and just watch, listen, and profile the teacher. Others would be playing x and o games in their books. While I sat there with a empty desk dressed ready for work. I would take a test on friday and head to work. On monday the teacher would say great job you the only one in the class who got an A. I did all that with a hangover every week. See I JUMPED THRU DARKNES and went to the local library and found old editions of the textbooks to study from. I may have been poor but far from dumb. I have never had a rich uncle or even a well off auntie. But I have, do, and will always JUMP THRU DARKNESS to take care me. Anyway don’t say it ain’t no way. Just say which way will you use to solve your problems today……JTD
