Don't Give Up

Sometimes I feel like giving up. I get exhausted trying to come up with words I can't remember. I am tired of making laughable mistakes. Besides, I could always just rely on my Spanish-speaking friends or the many English-speaking employees here in Mazatlán.

But every day I think of everyone who comes to the US without knowing English, the ones who work hard and learn it and they do not give up. They sacrifice, leave their families and come to a place where they are frequently not accepted. Some of those people are on this trip with us and they give me inspiration.

So, mistakes, fatigue and all, I'll shake it off and keep trying. I'm already tired but I won't give up.
