A Short Story about Myself

Improved Essays
I’d like to share a short story about myself. I’d like to do this, to show people that life will always throw curveballs but what truly matters is you fight through it! Things will get better sooner or later. For the children out there that don’t think they aren’t worth it, because of bullies or family issues, you ARE worth it! Every life matters, and it might not seem like it but you are destined for something great! I have had a rough life and have thought multiple times that it would never get better. As I get older, I realize that the struggle I go through makes me who I am. I am a stronger person because of what I went through and still go through. I will only get stronger from the struggles and curveballs, and even though sometimes I feel like giving up I remember I am worth it! So, here is a short story about what I’ve gone through as a child and what I go through now as an adult. Just remember, everyone is destined to be something great, it is up to you to make sure you get there! First, let me introduce myself. My name is Tiffany I am a 28-year-old woman that has gone through their fair share of struggles. I have attempted, with no success at times, to not let them get to me. Unfortunately, sometimes it is not easy to ignore. I have had a rough childhood, along with adulthood. I’d like to share some of my stories that I remember. It will help you understand why I say, sometimes things bring you down but always pick yourself up! Even if your face was stomped into
