Tererai Trent

Na het zien van The Oprah Winfrey Show “You’ll Never Give Up On A Dream” Ik was geïnspireerd door Tererai Trent

Tererai Trent raised in a rural Zimbabwe village. As a young girl in rural Zimbabwe, Tererai Trent lived without running water and electricity and had no hope for her future.

She grew up without much hope for the future but she had big dreams.

In 1991, a visitor changed Tererai's life forever. Jo Luck, from Heifer International, asked every woman about her greatest dream. Tererai Trent said : 'My name is Tererai, and I want to go to America to have an education, and I want to have a BS degree. I want to have a master's, and I want to have a PhD,"

Jo Luck looked at her and said , 'If you desire those things, it is achievable.'"

Tererai's mother who hoped her daughter could break the cycle of poverty, encouraged her to write her dreams on a piece of paper placed them in a scrap of tin and buried them under a rock in the pasture where she used to herd cattle

Tererai not only broke the cycle—she shattered it. In 1998, Tererai moved to Oklahoma. Just three years later, she earned a bachelor's degree in agricultural education. In 2003 Tererai obtained her master's degree.

After every achievement, Tererai returned home to Zimbabwe, unearthed her tin of dreams and checked off each goal she accomplished, one by one. In December 2009, Tererai realized her greatest dream of all—a doctoral degree.

Tererai is a symbol of hope in her village

If you think, you are the most unlucky and deprived think twice. And if you think you are lucky enough to have many opportunities, why aren’t you utilizing it?

If you have strong desire, God will open new doors for you.

How difficult circumstances may get, never give up hope of living better. Sometime God take tests.

               

When student is ready, teacher appears. If you want something too much, but can’t find way, angel will appear and lead you to your dream.

If you have dream, write it down, that makes these different from your other thoughts. It shows that these dreams mean a lot to you.
