Being able to continue my education is one of the greatest privileges I have today.
I come from a society where very few people can attend college. I once thought that
school was impossible for me due to my family financial situation. Due to this, now that I have the opportunity to further develop my professional interest in the business field. I
want to attend the college that will help me reach my goals, the goal to make my parents
proud of me and also to be as successful as possible in life.
Continuing my education does not only mean providing a better economic future
for my family and for myself, but also being a more educated person and having more
knowledge to make correct decisions in life. It will also allow me to give something back
to society for all the privileges it has given me. The great philosopher Socrates said,
"Knowledge is virtue", and I add to this, "No one can take it away from me". Ignorance
is the reason for many of the ills of society. Education makes us free from ignorance;
therefore it should be the first priority for everyone.
I am presently facing a time in which I must evaluate my characteristics and
qualifications. Life is the most valuable possession, which is enhanced by the value of an
education and improving our lives and expands our minds.
In conclusion, continuing my studies are a priority to me at this stage of my life as a
young adult entering, "THE REAL WORLD" as everyone calls it.
