STRIVE Prep SMART Speaks! Vol. 2
I honor my ancestors and will tell them what I’ve done to make them proud. I may have forgotten their appearance but not their memories, they live on through me and my actions. Without me, this world may or may not be a peaceful place. But there will be a difference in many people’s lives. Some say that I’m weird, but that’s the beauty in being different in life. I’m different from everybody else, not just the same person day in and day out. I’m not a robot but a young man trying to understand life and people. My ancestors consumed corn, chicken, etc. which has always been a part of my heritage. Modern society may have changed but my family heritage will always stay the same.
