since young I told my granny I would take care of her when she got older. As she got older she forgot alot sometimes even my name calling me other grandchildren name but she always reminded me that I told her I would take care of her and would ask when was I coming to stay with her. Not wanting to leave NY yet I kept telling her "granny im coming don't worry, il be there soon." Until soon never happened because I took time for granted selfishly thinking she had years more to live. Beating myself up for not fulfilling my promise I made a promise to myself that although I never made it to physically take care of my granny I will make it my duty to help someone elses in any way possible. I have a big heart and caring nature as you may see from my work experience children and elders have a soft spot in my heart. Since i made that promise in 2014 i have been successfully accomplishing it. Knowing someone is depending on me to make their day better makes me full of joy.
