A newbie Maria and ready to explore

Hailing from a very resilient and kind family, I am Maria, you can also call me Novy or Nov. I am simple, sweet, and sometimes the black sheep. My father is a truck driver and he also takes care of our farm. While my mother is also hardworking barbecue vendor and she also manages the farm. Both of them spend their lives just to make a living for us. Anyway, they are not my biological parents. They are my grandfather and grandmother since my real mother and father didn't took care of us since we are born. But, I hold no resentment towards them. I am actually happy with who I am with right now. My grandparents are the best and I would always forever choose them.

Well anyway, my family is what my parents had worked for - a happy and satisfied one.

Take note: When I say parents they are my grandma and grandpa.

My parents also send us to school despite poverty. They ensured that we will have a bright future waiting for us. Every school days, me and my sisters are busy especially every morning in order for us to prepare. I must admit that education really changed me in huge way. Being in school is one of the precious gifts my parents let me experienced.

The school is a place that actually aids in the development of one's personality. My schools are blessings in my life for they are the best schools in the area. The schools I am in served as places that we are truly cared for, properly educated, and well socialized. I am proud to be a student there. I am concerned about what is being taught and what will be learned.

Way back then, I was also a good student who takes an active role in all events, including tests and extracurricular activities. Quiz competitions, essays and speech competitions, and other extracurricular activities are at the center of my institution. I've won essay competitions on several occasions.

I already graduated college and currently applying for a teaching position. I admit I also have failed. I failed to provide for the family after I graduated. I believe after graduating, you can easily get a job and all but I was wrong. Still, I am positive that in the right time, along with my dreams with a goal, I can be what I want not just for me but for my family.

Achievements and losses are inextricably linked to successes and failures. Anyone who accomplishes something today has lost something the day before. There is no such thing as a perfectly successful man who does not have a mix of both failures and accomplishments. To put it another way, I failed a dozen times (I would tall about these in the next article). But every setback made me stronger.

My family, particularly my mother, has been a huge source of motivation and encouragement for me. That is why I am today a truly self-motivated, strengthened, and determined individual. My setbacks and blunders have taught me a great deal. I never see failure as a setback, but rather as an opportunity to learn and grow.

Life, in my opinion, is a whole pot of opportunities. One must utilize one's skills and abilities to their full potential. There is a solution to every difficulty. Life is a gift to humanity, in my opinion. It is important to work hard to improve not just one's own situation, but also the situation of others.

Humanitarian service is the best of all services. From my own experiences and tribulations, I've learned that one should never stop working hard, be confident, positive, and adaptable to any situation. The greatest achievement is being invincible. Only then will one be able to face life with vitality and confidence.

As a result, in writing about myself, I want to emphasize that what I see, experience, and plan for my life today is the whole embodiment of what I do today. I strive to be humble, passionate, dedicated, diligent, and truthful in whatever I do. My parents are the best teachers I've ever had. My parents have taught me the true value and meaning of life.

I live with a family that is joyful, dedicated, and diligent. That is without a doubt God's greatest gift to me.

How about you? Would you let me know how your life storya has been?
