I love literature, poetry, stories, etc. I love to volunteer and assist others that are in need of a helping hand. I want to travel around the world and help children read, and write. Children in American take for granted schools and the education taught. To read and write are two ways of learning about the world and life. Children that are in economic, and social distress, don't have luxuries of school, teachers, books, and desks. Having limited access to book, or even paper and pencil to write with, drives me to go with a group of educators and help children attain a way of intellect, travel and literate possibilities. Take pictures while I am in their country, hope to make an imprint in their lives of someone that wanted to change their dark days with sunshine of hope and light that there is more to the world than horror, there is still room for peace and love, through education hate will be over thrown. I want to document my experience of dissimilitude, in education throughout the world by from of poetry and photography. Start a non profit organization having future educators go to thrid world countries and help children read writes and become literate intellective children for hope for their road in life.

My ideal job would be to be Poet. I think that I am a poet already but I would like to be a spoken word professor. To teach university level students poetry is teaching history and sociology all at once. I love to read poetry form all countries and centuries. It helps the evolving of humans and regions express by emotional writing such as poetry, plays, and stories. I want to read, write and live doing what makes me happy, and that is expressing myself through words. Aside form helping less fortunate children in other countries I would try to get to the street Kids of my Hemisphere and assist them with an hear to listen, a voice to influence potential , and positive reinforcement , as well as help them get into a field or road they are successful. Starting at home is where the initial change must occur. Helping a child read can allow them to read the newspaper and become familiar with the issues occurring around the world and in their surroundings. One must always do right just because it is the right thing to do, not because you will be repaid one day. Helping another gives me a satisfying feeling inside, I became a solution to one of their problems in their bumpy road to life. I am a firm believer in loving all and serving all. Service to mankind will be what gets the world closer to peace. Poet, Professor, peacemaker.
