ENG 121 English Composition I
April 16, 2011 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Destiny, Life and Legacy these three words have so much power behind them than one could imagine. These three words have been made up the web of my life. Destiny is something that is to happen or has happened to particular person or thing, it’s the predetermined, usually inevitable or irresistible course of events. It’s the power or agency that determines the course of events. We all have a destiny it’s our purpose in life. Not everyone discovers their destiny but those that do are the few lucky ones.

When I am asked what motivated me to go back to school I would definitely have to say my children. I am very strict on them when it comes to their education. One day I sat there and thought about what it was that I wanted to do with my life. I have always considered myself to be an artist; I am a creative deep soul that enjoys anything that will allow me to express my creativity. I have always had a passion for photography. Therefore I knew that that is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I always felt that there were two types of jobs, one that makes a lot of money which is the realists job the nine to five jobs that most people do but hate. Then there’s the handful of people that follow their passion. In an online article it states, “In a world of mounting economic pressure driven by intensifying global competition, passion is essential to the kind of performance improvement needed to succeed.” Without passion people will be choosing between the lesser of two stresses: stress from being unemployed versus the stress of being in a dead-end job. I am aware that photography is a competitive career and only the best make the most money but that is not my reason for purposing this career it’s for the art of it. A dream of mine has always been to open up my own photography studio.
Once I decided what I wanted to do I started searching online and researching different colleges. I could have gone into an Art college but I decided that I would earn a degree in business first. Once I receive my degree in business I will then focus on getting my Bachelors in photography/ graphic arts. I looked up many colleges and I chose Ashford University. After talking to the student advisor it just seemed to fit so I enrolled in the business program for my Associates
