"Born to be bad" by Efrain Segundo the second

Have you ever admired somebody and never told them? Well i haven't, if i respect you i will tell you. In "born bad" Esperanza never tell Lupe how she felt about her. Esperanza and her friends made fun of Lupe and she unfortunately passed away, never knowing how much Esperanza admired her. In my life i have learned life lessons from a wide variety of people from family in poverty, criminals, but most importantly my mother. My mom is probably the main reason i act the way i act. If i act confident its because my mom taught me that the world isn't a very pleasant place , so i have to be confident in myself that i can survive in this world. My mom has taught me to not take any negativity from anyone, she has taught me to deal with my problems head on. I have told my mom how much i respect her time and time again and i will do it for as long as i can. So to make a story short kids, Look at your surroundings, appreciate even the smallest things, look at the people around you, learn from them, tell them how much they mean to you, because they might not be there tomorrow.
