Everybody in this world is different. But, how different are we? Many people have different views on what they believe in. It all hinges on their ethnic background, how they were raised, the color of their skin, and more. I guess you could say that I’m curious in different people. Where they come from, how they are raised, what their profession is, if they were in the war, and lots of other things. The United States is filled with special people and it makes them who they are. Let me share with you some of my aspects of what makes me, me.
I was born in a little town called Allentown Pennsylvania. We settled in a house right in the Northampton Borough. Northampton is a small community where everything you need is there, and you see many people …show more content…
Did you ever walk into school and you see all different types of sections like the popular kids, the jocks, the nerds, and the outcasts? Well, I was in between the nerds and the outcasts. I just hated how the school was sectioned off like this. If you weren’t cool you were a nerd, if you weren’t a nerd you’re an outcast. It was just so stupid and complicated.

While in other country’s you would get, shunned or die speaking up for yourself. Also in our country freedom of religion is big because in other country’s they have wars based on it. In the united states, you can have all the opportunities you can strive for. All you must do is work hard and meet your goals. No matter what your race or gender you can achieve anything that you set your mind to. When you live in the U.S, you meet lots of different people from all around the world. It’s true what they say that the united states is a melting pot of hopes, dreams, and opportunity to be the best that they could be. It affects me as far as appreciating where I am and how I can fulfill my dreams of a career, family, and confidence that our leaders will protect and use good judgement in keeping us safe. Although we have many flaws I will never give up hope that we will overcome them. As U.S citizens, we show compassion for all people and try our best to better their
