Super Sensation Selena Gomez's Life Revealed Children all over the world grow up poor, hungry, and face incredible odds on their path to success. Many of these children are known for perseverance, strength, and courage.

Is it truly about 'who you know' or 'where you go'? Those thoughts are vastly different than what children are taught in schools-that each child can achieve anything they desire. Perhaps it is the strength of this 'desire' that catapults a child from their dire circumstances and leads them to the success they wish to have.
