Life In The U.s
It took me eighteen years to realize what an extraordinary influence both of my parents are to my life. As well as me, they were both born in Mexico. I come from a family that takes risks in order to achieve something in life. That’s exactly what they did once my mother Maria gave birth to me in Mexico. It only took a short amount of time to realize they didn’t want me or my sibling to go through everything they went through when they were younger. They changed their whole lives around just for their family. Knowing they had to go through a lot to get where they are right now. I admire the person they have become and they influence me because I want to be able to achieve my goals and become someone in life just for them.
