I’m Going to Change the World Manifesto
As
human beings we are encouraged throughout our entire lives to change the world
in order to leave a positive footprint through the path that is life. There are
so many ways in order to succeed and opinions of why and how it will conducted
change over time. The intentions as a child were so different from the ones I
now hold proudly after high school. Each impact we had to overcome has shaped
our personality into becoming better human beings wanting not only to have a
career, family, and wealth but most importantly the opportunity to change the
world.
"He has achieved success who has lived well,
laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and
the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his
task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved
poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of
earth’s beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in
others and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose
memory a benediction." ~Bessie Stanley, 1905, commonly misattributed to
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Since childhood I wanted to become a doctor in
order to have the satisfaction of saving people lives. Having the opportunity
to give people one more chance of living, forgiving, love each other and share
with their loved ones has centered my attention in this career. Even though I
know becoming a doctor involves the constant visit of death, all those people
who are able to run from it are the ones that will make this effort worth it.
My idea of succes consists that as death past by me I am totally sure that the
world in which I lived in for so many time has now been modified, changed in a
positive way by my existence.
Academic
and life lessons have made a huge impact in my life shaping my way of acting,
thinking, and even modifying my goals when we are out into the real world. In
the real world there are no teachers, parents, or any adult that guide us
through the correct patch. We now become the adults who have the necessity of
making decisions in order to fulfill our goals. Teachers from high school not
only became academic tutors, they try each day to plant seeds such as
responsibility, humbleness, and respect. Shaping us, the future civilians, into
the right path. Social studies and chemistry had not only been academic courses
but most importantly they showed me that power and wealth are not important in
comparison to obtaining happiness by helping others. In social studies class we
are able to explore historic events that changed history but what really
captures my attention is the way we look at them. The ability to explore and
have different point of views of a theme or in effect an historic event showed
me how we need to use this tool in real life. My chemistry teacher has changed
my life in such amount that I have become a better person making me realize
that I'm able of achieving each of my goals.
One
year ago I had the opportunity to assist to Mega Misiones which is a whole week
in which we go to give happiness to poor people in Easter week. Through this
week I had the opportunity to value my parents, my home, my school and it
totally had an impact in my life. People who fight each day to have food on
their plate while we argue for a new cellphone, computer o even an expensive
meal helped me realize how fortunate I am. Helping and improving other people
life is my idea of changing the world, even if I had the fortunate of
changing only one person life it will be worth it. I just want to be able to
look upon my past and be able to say proudly I completed my job in the
world.
