Always give opportunities to others

There are many others who haven’t been able to live their dreams. Individuals like Mr. Anusorn are fortunate enough to share his childhood dream to others and give that opportunity. If you had a good head start in life, it can be fulfilling to share your dreams with those who don’t have the same opportunity as you.
