Giant, is a word commonly used to describe someone very big. Today, it is a synonym for a person who has achieved something big.

The so-called "geniuses", " truly hard workers" or simply the ones who got lucky.

Everyone has their picture of those powerful persons.

I, always imagined those rich kids who speak 4 languages, play many instruments, never had a red note, and so on.

As any other kid, I aspired to become like that, I gave my best and achieved most of those.

But when you come to a "first world country" the picture change completely.

At once, to know 4 languages, to play an instrument, to be able to swim, ride a car... are just the minimum necessary!

Yes, necessary as in obligatory.

All those kids have parents who can send them to University and support them in whatever they want.

All those kids have visited entire Europe at some point in their lives.

And they don't have an idea of how lucky they are.
