When people learn that I was born and raised in the South Bronx of New York City the first reaction I receive from society is the look of disappointment or shock. The Bronx is depicted as an urban borough with high rates of violence, low income families and an abundance of uneducated people. This view is perpetuated by the media which, unfortunately, society believes to be true. Inequality in the education system, health care and other social institutions persist. In addition, due to the media’s portrayal of urban environments, inner city youths comply with the depiction that they will never make it out of their environment, therefore forcing them to not seek higher education and remain in the streets. Everyone, no matter what race, gender, class, or religious background has the right to equal assistance and education. Hence, my passion to speak about succeeding when the odds or society are not in your favor. I am a Posse and Gilman alumni, that is currently getting the Masters and work for one of the largest not for profit education company. I want to continue to show people of similar background that achievement is always accessible.

When catastrophic things happen in your life you can’t help but naturally self-evaluate your current way of living. Everyday life was telling me I had a purpose. Each excuse buries who you want to be, where you want to go and diminishes your drive. I majored in procrastination, pink slips (both termination and late notice letters), pushing priorities to the limit and stretching deadlines out as much as possible. I even took time getting out of the womb, my birthday is the last day of the year (December 31st). My step father passed away suddenly in his sleep. I was so comfortable with him being alive that I never thought of death. I was so comfortable that I didn’t know my life was built on the foundation of a rug that could get pulled from beneath me at any given moment. I was face to face with a man whose wishes, goals and intentions all had an expiration date.

From their stories, I have developed my understandings of what some are looking to achieve. I strongly believe that everyone has the capacity and ability to find peace and happiness in their lives. This possibility stems from knowing one’s self and working to be certain that the true self is the guide.
