Listen to the Bullet Hole
Thinking back to that day in Guatemala—I remember I struggled on the dirt road for what seemed like miles; the hot sun was incessantly beating me with its unforgiving rays. I began to fathom the reality of a human who endures this heat and this walk to the only school around. It stands alone within over a 60-mile radius.
