This is the big question. Everyone asks this at some point in their life. I ask this because so many people have told me, "You will do great things someday." I honestly believed that and am still holding onto that. Even if I never become a NY Times Bestseller, I still want to make my mark in this world. If I do become a teacher for the Deaf, I know that that will impact others in ways I can't imagine. I know that the teachers I had growing up helped mold me into the person and writer that I am today. If I didn't have the encouragement and people pushing me to be better, I probably would have skated through school and not gotten into a top school like Ithaca. I want others to never hear the words, "You can't."
"My future looks so bright, I need shades," is a quote from a shirt I saw back in middle school. I can only pray that that is true.
