I am from a small town in Vermont where everyone knows everybody, both a blessing and curse. Coming from such a small town has caused me to develop a sense of pride in understanding the lives of those around me. If there's one thing I have learned in my life it's that everyone you meet is fighting their own battles, no matter how big or small. With that being said, one hope I have for my life in the future is to have truly made a difference in someone's life, as that would make a difference in mine.
