Through your my life there has been many obstacles that i have had to jump over. One of my biggest would be the alcoholism that myself and my family have been trying to fight for the past 7 years of our life’s. it’s been hard having to go to school on a day where I got little to no sleep because of the fact that I had to stay up all night wondering if myself or my brothers were safe because of the rampage going on down the hall. Having to go to all my classes, getting good grades, and putting myself in positions to succeed and achieve the goal of being the first high school graduate and the first to go to college in my family. While trying to set the best examples for my little brothers who have been through the same things. Life isn’t the easiest to succeed in when it brings unexpected deaths like one of your friends taking their very life because of substance abuse. Life will through curve balls at you and it will mess you up in ways that you don’t even understand you can be hurt. I’ve had to over come so many things in my high school years and I will never forget how long or how hard those things have damaged me but that’s what makes me who I am today and I will never forget any of the problems or who caused them and what I have over come and the ways it helped me. Not only the people along the way that I lost and gained helped me realize that life keeps going on without me wanting it to but you have to learn to keep pushing through. Nothing in life will every be permanent but they memories you make with the people you love and the people that become your anti depressants. As a police officer I hope to be someone’s anti depressants every time I interact with someone or help a group. It’s been a dream of mine for the past 3 years and i’m going to pursue it head on and make sure that I truly cam be a good that comes out of all of the trama that I have been given. It will forever be my dream to help people all over the world and that is what i’m going to do with my degree.
