When I was a little girl, I learned how to dumpster dive for items that people threw away that I need or want. I did this until I was in high school. I didn’t have money for a bicycle so I had to look in the junk that everybody threw out month after month. I wasn’t embarrassed. I thought I was resourceful that I’m not going to wait for a bicycle. I’m gonna go out there and get it. Those humble beginnings help me live a very humble life. I am from the US and I shake my head how spoiled in the US have become. One man’s junk is another man’s treasure .
