Eternal Journey

Ben Dosso

Ben is a product of the street and an English learner. He grew up in violence, but he prefers tolerance and acts in silence instead. He is a humble young man of a few words. He has no advisor nor instructor. Only his good intuition guides him on the right path before he decides to do something. He is also a machine of positive thoughts that can turn all types of obstacles into opportunities for himself in order to help other people. He came to the United States in January 2017. He has no writing skills or diploma. Happy of being welcomed as a refugee in this great nation, he is considerate about his adoptive nation, and being aware of the injustice and suffering inflicted on refugees, migrants, and street children, he started learning the new language little by little before taking the risk to write in English in order to make their voices heard. He would like to be known for the talent of a youngster of the street, but not for all the bad reputation people have in mind about street violence.
