Gilbert's Story
Life
I HAVE TWO YOUNG ADULTS IN COLLEGE NOW. IHOPE THEY FIND HAPPYINESS IN WHATEVER THEY DO. I FEEL THIS WORLD HAS CHANGED NOT FOR THE GOOD. THIS COUNTRY IS TO FOCUSED ON MONEY AND MATERIAL GOODS IN
THIS WORLD . WE HAVE TO THINK MORE ABOUT HELPING OTHERS WHO DONOT HAVE THE BASIC NEEDS TO SURVIVE DAY TO DAY, LIKE HAVING FRESH WATER AND FOOD, MEDICINE .
School
TO ME HIGH SCHOOL WAS NOT FUN AT ALL, I SOMETIMES WISH I COULD CHANGE IT BUT I CANT. WE GO ON WITH OUR LIVES AND LIVE THEM THRU OUR CHILDREN. I AM SURE THE AREA WHERE OUR OLD SCHOOL IS HAS CHANGED AND MANY DONT WANT TO GO BACK AND SEE IT NOW. UPDATE IT IS 2014 NOW BEEN RETIRED FOR THREE YEARS LIVING IN NORTH CAROLINA ENJOYING LIFE WITH MY WIFE.
College

I DIDNT HAVE ANY MILITARY SERVICE, I WISH I WAS STRONGER AT THE TIME TO PREFORM MY DUTY BUT I DIDNT. I HAVE GREAT RESPECT FOR THOSE MANY CLASSMATES WHO GAVE OF THEMSELVES.
