Endeavor, Endure
I have been having problems with my finger lately. A wart developed, (perhaps from playing guitar). Mrs. Canh the teacher, and several visiting students were trying to help me with it. My main encouragement came from one of our students in class, who kept urging me to "endeavor" try. His name is Wei. He is in a wheelchair. Wei has taught himself English in 3 months. I am impressed by this young man's intelligence and determination. His mother takes his wheelchair up and down the two flights of steps every day to get him to class. She also carries Wei's younger brother to class on her shoulders. An incredible woman!
