The Script I Play In My Family

Ever since I was an infant my family shared this amazing view of the individual I was bound to become. They enrolled me in numerous productive activities that enabled me to live a healthy and prosper life. They led me to believe that my life had an inspiring meaning, that everything that crossed my path was destined for betterment.

I was born to play the script of a man who lived a graceful life, a life were constant improvement was not only possible, but also palpable. As I learned to focus, it became clear that irremediably of the present situation, I control the outcome of my own decisions and actions. This meant that my happiness and well being receded not among other’s decisions, but upon mine. 

I have an older sister and a younger one, and every single one of us holds a special place in our hearts. We’re inevitably irreplaceable, and if I had to choose all over again I wouldn’t change a thing.

My parents enrolled me in piano, guitar, violin and singing lessons. I’ve participated in salsa dancing, in soccer, tennis, swimming, basketball as well. All my life I’ve studied in great pedagogical institutions. My family taught me how to cook a variety of styles and meals, I’ve been taught to have insurmountable faith and to strive amidst the struggle and adversities.

I’m the mediator; I’m kind of the psychologist in my family. I’m sort of the one who’s always looking for peace, who doesn’t agree with altercation and the one who’s always willing to learn new things.

I’m eternally thankful for the script that my family instilled in me, and for that I can’t help but to quench my thirst for betterment. They established such high expectations upon my possible achievements that I can’t help but to improve and upgrade my habits. The only thing I would have changed throughout the years is lifting even higher the already high expectations we have upon myself. Maybe then I wouldn’t have wasted some of my valuable time; maybe then I’d be closer to become the mentally strong and disciplined individual I am bound to become.
