From what I have learned in my time in Slovakia, both in my personal experience and observing how these young people respond, it seems to me that the increased adversity to making your way in the world creates people who are more firmly rooted and generally more creative and determined. I think it could be hypothesized that the more difficult the journey people must travel in a given situation, the better chance there is for something extraordinary to happen. I believe all of my friends here today have bright futures ahead of them.
