I feel like no matter how old we get there will always be uncomfortable situations we find ourselves in the make us question our own thought, feels, and/or opinions. Situations that define us by making us reevaluate what it means to be the people we are. They are uncomfortable and trying but it is these situations that make us who we are. Think back to the days of learning to ride a bike. For some it came easily and for others it was a tedious process filled with determination, perseverance, as well as cuts and bruises. This is were certain character traits where developed and some young children discovered what it truly meant to accomplish a goal. Throughout the course of ones own life many similar situations appear. Getting your first A, standing up for the kid on the playground, giving a controversial speech to your class, choosing a college major you are passionate about but the job market isn't. If we really stop and think about all of the little accidental moments that had to come together to make us who we are, well we might get a head ache. No matter the difference in opinions, backgrounds, age, race, gender or religion we all walk through life collecting moments. Moments that define us. We learn to be afraid of certain kinds of people based on one specific event, we learn that a certain gender is more nurturing than another, we learn stereotypical definitions of what it means to feel safe, loved, and wanted in society. My goal is to be apart of a moment that someone collects that is profound to their existence. I want to be the person that fights for the underdog, breaks the silence, and defends against religions, racial,or gender based persecution. Think about what would happen if we all set out after that same goal. XOXO, Hunter
