Narrative essayMy Life Style
I believe that everything in life has obstacles no matter where you go or what you do you will always face something and you will have to learn from them and learn to overcome them. There is never a easy way out of things because you will always struggle to accomplish what you want. As Beverly Sill says “ There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.” So no matter what you want to become in life or where you want to go in the future you will never find shortcuts so learn to overcome your obstacles. I have learned to continually be aware of my behavior therefore it has helped me keep an open mind when I face obstacles in my life. To begin with I was born in Guanajuato, Michoacan. I was beginning to know about life around 3 years old when my mom passed away. At first it wasn't a big thing because I didn't really know what had happened. Then I was brought to Lindsay, Ca when I was about to turn 4 years old. I was starting to notice that my mom wasn't with me and I started asking my dad where she was, all he would reply is that she was in the sky with God. This was the first obstacle I had to overcome, Many times I would be be asked about my mom and I would just get sad it was a big lost to me not having her by my side like my friends did. It wasn't easy, but I was able to overcome it so I could keep going in life. Now I am living with my grandma. She is mostly the one raising me and teaching me about life. My dad works in the mountains and is only able to come 3 days every 2 weeks. That is the reason I live with my grandma. No matter what he has never stopped caring, he is always calling me and spending time with me when he is able to .This is another obstacle I been having to face during my life. We live in Lindsay,California it’s a small town in Tulare county. I think of Lindsay as the place that I was born because I was practically raised here. Lindsay is where I started school and were im graduating from. It might not be the best place to live in but trust me Lindsay is a place that I will always remember no matter where I go in the future. Right now I am In my last year of high school, it's not easy but my goal is to be able to graduate to make my grandma and my dad proud. After I graduate I want to go to College of the Sequoias to do my general Ed. After I finish my general ed there I want to transfer to Fresno State and study to get my degree on criminal Justice. My dream job is to become a correctional officer or probation officer. They have been my dream jobs since I was little I like what they do and it looks fun. Hopefully if everything goes well I am able to accomplish what I want and I know I will because I have My grandma, My dad and my friends to help me accomplish what I want. To conclude life will never be easy no matter what way you take. You will always face obstacles but just remember don’t let those obstacle stop you instead overcome them and learn from them. I have faced many obstacles during my life but they have never stopped me I just keep going in life and try to stay strong. Never try taking shortcuts in your life because the shortcuts you take might lead you the wrong way so just take long way it will be worth it. |
