What I see?
I see a young boy with a raincoat, hat on his head and a nylon of scraps hung on his shoulder.
What I feel?
I feel the young boy is trying to make ends meet, since he has no one to fend for him.
Adam lived in a crowded urban slum, where he spent his days collecting scraps to sell to the local recycling center for survival.
He was just ten years old when he lost both parents, so he had no one to carter for him, all he could do to make ends meet was for him to collect scraps and sell.
One day, while he was rummaging through the dumpster, he stumbled on an old printer. He took it home, cleaned it and started fixing it. To his surprise, Adam was able to fix it with some spare parts he found and the printer started working perfectly.
He began to use the printer to create some colourful flyers and posters which he sold to the local shopkeepers in his slum. He continued his scraps collection and also his printing business.
As his printing business grew, he began to attract attention from his community and also the neighboring community. People were impressed by his hard work and creativity.
One day, a representative from a large company visited his slum, looking for innovative young minds to participate in their annual science competition. As they were going round the slum, Adam's flyers caught their attention, and he was given an invitation to participate in the competition.
Adam was very excited because he never expected to be among those that will participate in the competition. He started practicing on what he would present that day.
The day of the competition arrived, and everyone were seated to see what the young minds will exhibit. Adam created an impressive project showcasing his printing skills and creativity.
His work was outstanding, and he won the first place in the science competition, earning a significant cash reward and a scholarship to a prestigious school to study.
Adam’s life changed overnight, he never went back to collecting scraps again. He was able to attend a good school, where he excelled in his studies and developed his passion for innovation and entrepreneurship.
Years later, Adam graduated from the University, served his mother land and started his printing business, using his initiatives to create colourful ideas for people. With all his colourful ideas, people patronized him from far and near.
Adam became a successful businessman, creating jobs and opportunities for the youths in his community. He never forgot his humble beginning as a scrap collector and he remained committed to giving back to his community.
The young ones in his community were happy that something good was happening in the community, and Adam was happy he was putting smiles on the faces of the people around him.
Adam did not allow his predicament to stop him from aspiring and everytime he looked at the old printer that he proudly displayed in his office, he was reminded that even in the most unlikely places, big breaks can happen.
