About me
My name is Maecyn Ahrlett, I'm 18 years old. I was born in Bryan, Texas but raised in Normangee, Texas. Who am I you may ask? Some people would say I'm the quiet girl sitting in the corner or the girl that talks too much, but everyone will have their different opinion of me. I am who I am for a reason, and I was put on this earth to make a difference.
Growing up I had a difficult childhood, from abuse to drugs and to even alcohol. My parents divorced when I was seven, even since then that's when my life has been different. Starting around my middle school year I took a dark path, that led me to make very bad decisions, but with the help of friends and total strangers, I turned my life around. Going through that difficult time in my life made me realize what I was put on this earth for. I love helping people, I like the fact of taking care of them and making them smile especially babies. This will answer my question of what I am into, and that is the medical field (pediatrician). Everyone asks me why do you want to be a Pediatrician? Or your gonna hate it. But honestly, besides all the blood etc, I'm gonna love what I do because I love seeing people smile, especially when they are smiling at me because it helped them and that's what matters to me.
I'm the first one in my family to actually fall through with my plans. I told myself when I saw my mom struggle as a single parent that I would go to college and I will get a good job and make a better future for me and my future kids. Because I don't want them to have the live the life that I did. Growing up like that taught me so much about how to be mature and know from right from wrong just by watching the people I was around as a young kid. I recently just moved to Bryan with my boyfriend to be closer to school and to have a better life. My boyfriend has pushed me to accomplish my goals and has been the only person that has been there for me through everything. And I hope that he is there in the future. I hope that I have a good job and that I can provide for my family. I struggle sometimes and go back to that dark place, but I always stay positive and I tell myself that I made it this far I can't give up now.

God is so good! Sometimes it takes going down a rough path to realize the better. I think that this was so awesome for you to share maecyn!!
ReplyDeleteThe good thing about having those dark places BEHIND you is that you can grow in wisdom early in life. Where all those bad choices populated your life earlier, grace now abounds. You will benefit greatly in the years ahead by being able to look back and know what is and is not beneficial for you. Thanks for sharing. I'm excited you want to go into medicine.
ReplyDeleteYou're brave for talking about your rough patch. It takes courage for someone to do this. Keep thinking positive and nothing will be able to phase you.
