By Erika Hernandez
My biggest fear is being nothing in life, being another disappointment and living check by check and being angry at the world. Being the youngest of four, I know who I want to be. I crave being the first one to be someone. I see the way my parents view my siblings with such sorrow. I can’t and won’t carry that kind of weight. I wish to prove to everyone that I will be able to carry my own weight. The satisfaction of proving everyone wrong who said I can’t be anything in life is my biggest craving in life.
