“I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than
anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want
to work, and I decided that I would change it.”
Dr. Ben Carson
Reflection
In this quote by Ben Carson he states “I hated
poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that
(poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would
change it.” To this meant a special meaning to Dr. Carson but in his mind this
meant everything. He is saying that no matter how deep you are in trouble that there
is always a way out .That you don’t need help from others that you can do it by
yourself. You can change the world like nobody else. He is the reason that so
many lives were saved. That when he felt down he got back up and no matter how
tough he got he pushed pushed till the end.
