The one subject I loved, history, constantly talked about the struggles of others, and always allowed me to imagine what my life would be like if I was different. The class constantly left me wanting to learn more about others, and desperate to do something with that information. Teaching was what I wanted to do. I even doubted myself because I’m a very shy person who would rather jump out of a plane than stand up in front of my peer and stutter over a PowerPoint. Even so, the doubts were counteracted by a thought of determination, and no matter how much I tried to talk myself out of it, I knew that teaching history would be the only way for me to satisfy my need of spreading awareness about diversity in some way. With everything I have been through, I have always found a way to turn things into a learning experience, and add them to my drive to reach my goals. I want children to grow up learning more about themselves instead of the sugar-coated history they hear. I want for people to understand people instead of condemning them. I want so many things from life, and I have found that the only way to fulfill those wants is to go out and do the part
