Hopes from Justine

Here we go! Hope Journal entries from our Community Listener Justine, another student from Ánimo Pat Brown Charter High School in South Los Angeles. She filled her journal with hopes from family, friends, teachers, and strangers in the Florence-Firestone neighborhood of South LA.

Here’s Justine’s personal hope:

“I hope for success and world peace.

I hope to be a great daughter, sister, and friend. Hopefully someday all my wildest dreams may come true.

I hope for the best in others, and for all those who have suffered may once again find happiness.

I hope for a long life, hopefully it doesn’t end in the year 2012.

I hope to graduate and become very successful.

I hope that I make my parents proud.

I hope my siblings will look up to me as their role model.”

—Justine, 16 from Los Angeles
