This essay will cover the main ways these traits have affected my life.

While I struggle at times to find myself worthy, I am able to begin the process of believing this truth due to the background of gracing that my parents have
Over the course of my life I have had many life experiences which have made me who I am today. When I was in my middle childhood, most of my life revolved around playing and having fun. I did not have to put forth effort in hardly any area of my life or work hard in order to achieve specific goals. As time went on however, my own life experiences began to have an effect on me, and shape the person I am today. My life started to change the most during middle childhood when I was around the age
aspect of my identity which has shaped my life tremendously, is being the only natural born citizen born into a family composed entirely of immigrants. My family, including my grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and further extended relatives all immigrated to America from Albania.

Footed onesies in shades of white, yellow, and green. A long list of unisex names from which to choose. Sifting through my baby book, it is easy to see tell that my parents had no clue what gender their new baby would be. That is, until I came into the world in a flurry of activity and someone—probably the doctor—announced “It 's a girl!” My grandmother
Half of my identity revolves around my race and culture.The first impression people have about my race is that I am white, but I quickly break that single story they may have of my race when I say that I am Mexican. Mexico is where my father was born and my mother was born here, but her parents as well were born in Mexico. My culture is revolved around Mexican traditions.
