Have you had any unique travel experiences that you feel have helped shape your way of thinking and/or the way you live your life?
Traveling to see family has always been the most important thing to me. My family has never gone on any long trips. Whenever we have traveled, it has always been to see family. Family is the most important thing in a person’s life.
If you were given enough funds to spend one year of your life to engage in any recreational, political, religious/spiritual, or other endeavor of particular importance to you, what would you choose to do? I would open up an after school program for children. With this program, I would have field trips, activities, snacks, and counseling. I think sometimes families get so busy in everyday life that they forget to ask their kids about things that may bother them. I think every child needs a person they feel close to and comfortable with to share their worries and thoughts with.
