What Matters to Me
God, family, friends, and school are the main assets to my daily life that are most important to me. They all play tremendous roles in my life. At a young age, I was introduced to church and as I matured, a realization about how important God is to me, dawned upon me. Besides friends, family is all I have. School is very important to me also.
Without a good education, it would be almost impossible to be successful in life. In school, I apply myself one hundred percent. I do this because I know anything worth having is worth working hard for. Dedicating myself to my school work has gave me a sense of urgency when it comes to hard work. School will possibly help me to have a great job and future.
When I was seven years old, I was Baptized at New Bethel Baptist Church. Since my baptism I have become a very active member of the church and surrounding churches in the area. Attending church regularly has allowed me to have a better relationship with God.
Lastly, family and friends are matters most to me. I have very small family. Therefore, we have no choice but to be close. We love each other unconditionally. My friends also play a huge role in my life. Especially my boy friend. He's the sweetest thing in the world. Without having family or my friends, I would be completely alone and not have anybody to confide in.
The things that matter most to me should be the things that matter most to every one. God, family/friends, and school matters most to me personally. Without them, I would not be influenced to go in the right direction in life.
