About this listen

Myse Delione was an adopted child who, when she was 10 years of age, began to share her thoughts with her adopted mother. “When I grow up, I will live in a big house with nice things, wear nice clothes and be a model for the world,” she would say to her mother every morning on her way to school. “Well you can’t, so forget about it,” her mother would respond, “and don’t ever let me hear you say that again.” “OK mama. I won’t,” Myse always replied.

Barefooted and with just one pencil and a note book, Myse entered the school house every day, ashamed to look at her friends. “Where are your shoes Myse, did your mother cook them for dinner last night?” And they would laugh loudly as Myse tearfully walked into her class room. Under her breath and amidst her tears, she would mumble, “I will live in a big house, wear nice clothes, and walk in shoes no one else will be able to wear.” Myse tells her story of how, in spite of all the opposition and traumatic experiences she faced, she never allowed those thoughts to ruin her dream.
