my first

about me.......23yrs, lightbrowneyes, love music...this sounds like a bad classified ad

Firsts...

Everyone has a first. First love, first heartbreak, first accident, first job...the list goes on. But what firsts do you keep in your memory?
My first passion in life appeared in middle school. I have realized that my passion in life is to make a difference. I helped a child who had reading disabilities, complete her first book. "I've finished my first book, I couldn't do it without you..when are we going to finish another one?" This overwhelming reward made me cry, inside and out, because I have never made a difference in someone's life, until now. Many years have passed and I met that child I once tutored again...she is starting her first year at the University of Toronto for linguistics. I am so proud of her achievements and I am honoured she was the kindling for my first passion in life.

What firsts do you keep locked away in your memory?
