Please, please listen to this report from today's edition of The World. This story is so very relevant to Bamboo Village - in many ways, it is the story of myhusband, who, like the young man in this story, was the first university grad in his home village. This story will describe so much better than I am able the great sacrifice a community will make for its children, and also the immense expectation placed on that child.
I'd love to hear your reaction to this story!

Very moving indeed! I shed a few tears myself. I am SOO glad that you found this. I think it is precious to find stories that resonate so closely with your own personal life experiences even if they tug so strongly at your heart.
