Everybody told us we weren’t supposed to be here … we weren’t supposed to be here.”When Kevin Durant, one of the world’s two best basketball players, won the National Basketball Association’s (NBA) Most Valuable Player award in 2014, these were some of the things he said to his mother at the event’s press conference. They weren’t supposed to be there. Not Kevin Durant’s speech per se, although I would encourage everyone to listen to it for it is a Hall-of-Fame worthy speech, but the idea of “we weren’t supposed to be here”. Yet, perhaps those who were not born with such gifts are the more remarkable, at least with regard to the idea “they weren’t supposed to be there”. Well, try getting 7As with no water and electricity in your home because your parents cannot afford to pay for these.
