My life's goal has always been to make my mom’s life the best life, just like how she made my life the best life. My mom works cleaning houses, and I’ve seen how much pain she’s suffered, how much she’s endured for my father, and now, being a single mom, how much pain she’s going through doing it all alone. Raising me and raising my little brother is not an easy task, and I always thank her for it because she always seems to make the best out of it. And not just that—she always seems to have a smile on her face while doing it. She’s the most patient, kind, and genuine person I know. And all I want to do is achieve the dreams she couldn’t achieve after she got pregnant with me. She was not able to finish college in her country, so I will do what she couldn’t do. She will live through me, and see what all her hard work did for her. She might not have finished college, but she was able to raise a child alone, and I always try my hardest to be the best and most simple so that I may not be a burden to her. If you are reading this and you’re considering me as a winner for a scholarship, thank you for allowing me the chance to create an impact on future generations of Latinos through psychology.
