Overcoming Adversity
Some people crumble in the face of hardship, and others shine in spite of it. T.J. Faeser of Biloxi is one of those people who shines.
He had been working as a mechanic and was in his first year of college when he lost his vision. He’d had hopes to be nurse, but had to put that aside with his vision loss. Instead, he clung dearly to his desire to help others and started classes to be a dispatcher with the Department of Marine Resources in Mississippi.
Would that the rest of us were so courageous to face whatever adversity came our way and find a new path for ourselves that allows us to help our fellow man.
