In 2003, the Kenyan government decided that primary school education would be free for all. Kenya is one of the poorest countries in the world but its government knows education's importance. Although the conditions are very bad, from the picture you can see many students jostled in a classroom.
In the classroom there is an eighty-four-year-old man. He is sitting with five or six-year-olds, but his age is not an obstacle, he is also attentive like his young classmates. He is lucky, for the rest of his life he has a chance to get education.
He is an old man, but he is still studying. His story tells everyone that you can learn anything, at anytime, if you want.

I agree, Lei. I also think that his story reminds us of how lucky we are to have lived in countries that were rich enough to give us all a good education.
