Inspiration!

Watched 'Homeless to Harvard" Liz Murray's story. After watching "Saturday Night Live" ritual, popped this DVD and lied in the couch warm, cozy, ready to fall asleep. Movie started as usual with drugs, police arresting, AIDS, kids becoming homeless, etc. Two daughters, one very close to MOM, trying to protect mom at her young age. Well, when the MOM dies, decision this girl makes almost woke me up completely. Liz, that is her name, goes back to school. With no prior academic records or transcript, she completes her high school education in two years. She gets a "New York Times" scholarship and lands in Harvard. Movie abruptly ends by saying that she left Harvard too. I completely woke up, sat straight, powered the laptop, did a google on her. I was very curious to know where she landed after leaving Harvard. To add to my surprises, she joined in Columbia to stay close to her dying father who live in NY. Speechless!
