Faith
After 18 months, my investment money ran out and I couldn't afford to eat or a place to stay. I had trouble finding a job without a high school education. Finally, I got a job working on a pig farm shoveling slop to hogs. I got so hungry that I considered eating what the pigs were eating.
I started thinking about my dad's middle class house and food enough to eat and here I am starving with these hogs. I decided to go home and get on my knees and say I'm sorry to my father. I hope that Jeff will forgive me also. The next morning, I put on my backpack and started for home.This story continues with Jeff the older brother.

I'm sorry, but your article listed "high school dropouts" in the same paragraph as "pigs" and although in your heart and mind this is not what you meant. It just came across that ones' socioeconomic level was at the bottom of the food chain. I can see where this will inevitably alienate the very people you would love to reach. There was a time when such verbiage would have communicated to me clearly that unless I achieve a particular level of success in this life I am good for no more than "feeding Pigs". I am sure this is not what you meant to say, but it is what I DO see.
