“You never understand a person until you consider things from his point of view… until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” Atticus Finch, To Kill A Mockingbird. When I was nine years old my family and I moved from Marshall, Texas to Harleton, Texas. Making this move had a significant impact on my childhood due to the fact that I was taken from the town I had spent the first nine years of my life in only to begin an entirely new life in another town I had never even been to.

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone” This was once said by the great author Neale Donald Walsch.

A shell of a turtle that keeps you safe. At times, at moments, it will be your best friend. Other times it is your enemy. Going out of that shell enriches you by exposing you to different sides of life and different ideas. It will open many doors that would’ve never been open.

I recently realized that my whole life, I have never really done anything out of my comfort zone. I have done things that may seem crazy or different to other people, but not to me.

To me, I was just a helpless little 7-year-old that they had ripped me away from his friends, family, home and life in Costa Rica, a relatively unrecognizable, spanish-speaking country in Central America, and moved to this rural, musty little town in the middle of nowhere, Texas in who cares, USA.
