Personal Essay

I want to be truly content with my life. I want to wake up every morning and live for myself. I want to travel and see the world. I want to make something of my life and to affect the lives of others. I see myself doing this in my future when I become an educator. I envision the lives of those I will help when I am a high school teacher. I see the love from those around me, from my family and friends. I see the friendships I have made this year since I have started school. I carry on me my backpack, which contains my books for the classes that I attend. I hold my student card that labels me as an undergraduate student at the University of Missouri. I hold my cell phone that almost never leaves my hand. I acknowledge that this inanimate object serves a great purpose in my life and is often given too much value. I carry in my heart the love from my parents who raised me. I hold the love I have for my two younger siblings. I know that I am very blessed. I know that I have an infinite number of opportunities to accomplish a great deal of things. I know that I should take advantage of these opportunities that I have in my life and aspire to do great things. I know that I am a nineteen-year-old college freshman,  and I know that I will continue on to do many great things.
