Past, Present and Future





The word history has a deeper meaning than most of us know, and mine describes my life. My life has always been struggle since I was small, which has made me have this drive to succeed in everything I do. For example, I have been playing soccer since I was five, and I am still playing. My first year of high school I tore my ACL playing soccer, and I had to get surgery. I was out for about 8 months, and during that time I had do to physical therapy. After my surgery I continued to play soccer, and I played until my freshman year of college. As soon as I entered college I got injured again, however I hurt my left knee. Everything happened so fast, and I could not understand what was going on. A couple weeks later I found out I needed to get surgery, and my whole mind set was not well. Furthermore, I could not face the fear of going through surgery once again, but I knew that this was just another obstacle I would have to overcome. My whole past makes me who I am today. Nevertheless, I knew I could get over this, and I did I got surgery. In addition I am playing soccer now , and I continue to play and not let my past effect my present nor future.



Regardless of my past I try to live in the present, and try to live each day as if it is my last. My life right now is very ongoing, which means I do not have that much time to relax. I am juggling a job, soccer, and school, it is not easy. On the other hand, I like to be kept busy because it helps me get over things. Everything that I do I try to do with a purpose. I strive for the best in anything I do, and I want to go far in school. I know that my life is in my own hands, and it just takes a second to get distracted. My family is my whole reason for living they are always there for me, but other than I have a few couple good friends. I am the kind of person who lives in the moment, but I tend to stress out for little things. Despite that I do try to keep busy and hustle to make it to the top.

Lastly, my future is very big and open to any new opportunities that are headed my way. In a couple years I see myself at a university studying and majoring in Sociology, and I know that is my path in life. I hope one day to live by the beach, and having a family with kids. Everybody wants to meet that special person that they will spend the rest of their life with, but I am not in any hurry. My main focus is school, and providing for myself and giving back to my parents. I am a very humble person,that can be good and bad;but I try to make decisions that will help me in the long run. I choose what my future is , and I know that any choices I make can effect it. I am excited to see what is ahead of me ,and ready for any troubles I will face and conquer them.
