When I think about the future, I imagine myself becoming a social worker. I want my work to be about people, their stories, and helping them find hope when life becomes difficult. The change I want to see in the world is a world where no person is feeling that they have to face their problems alone.

One problem I care about is that many people, especially young people like children and kids, are experiencing difficult situations but do not always have someone who truly listens to them. Sometimes people are afraid to ask for help because they think they will be judged or misunderstood. I believe that being listened to can sometimes be the first step toward feeling stronger.

My dream is to live in a world where asking for help is not something to be ashamed of. I want children to feel comfortable talking about their problems, to know where they can find support, and people who have gone through difficult experiences to be treated with dignity. I do not want someone's past, background, or circumstances to decide what they can become in the future.

As a future social worker, I want to help create this change. I would love to work with children-communities and support people in finding opportunities that can improve their lives for a positive side. I want to listen to people without judging them, connect them with the right support,encourage them to believe in their own abilities, and to surround them with the atmosphere that they would like. I also believe that education is the way to success, it can give people opportunities and help them build a different future and a different plan of what they are building now.

I know that one person cannot change the whole world alone. However, I believe change can begin with something small: like a small step you took on a stair that is full of levels and these levels are the difficulties of the life you are living. One person is listening, in one conversation,in one space.

The world I want to see is not a perfect world. It is a world where people feel seen, heard, respected, and supported with each other and from each other. Therefore If I become a social worker, I hope I can be that one and that change maker of the people who help make that world a little more real.
