ELHAM
From an early age, I've always thought about what purpose I hold in life. How to spend this short amount of time in a meaningful way -- whatever that may be. Although those hours, days, and even years of reflecting have led me to settle on the fact that I may never find the answer, Samuel Beckett’s play, Waiting for Godot, has taught me that I've been waiting for something to happen that may never come: I thought that by merely sitting around, my purpose would somehow appear, but never thought to take control and live the life I want to lead. This revelation led me to wake up and work to fulfill my true goal; positively impacting billions of people. Through learning cool things, meeting new people, and building valuable skill sets, I'm paving my path to living a meaningful life. Although I will certainly reach challenges and obstacles, I aim to always try my best to have some sort of impact for the good. And in knowing that, I am at peace.
