One Job... May Change My Life.


An aptitude for working with others

A desire to promote international development. 

A true career in healthcare.   

 

This is my dream, my lock in disguise.

But my fear exists only in me,

for I am the true key.

 

Public Health is my tool

I've been inspired by a combination of science and history at my school

Polio, Cholera, and more have been eradicated

So what other disease needs to be alienated

 

This is my dream, my lock in disguise.

But  my fear exists only in me,

for I am the true key.

 

Times will be hard

But it's up to me to play the right card

For if I fail to

my hopes, my dreams, my aspirations

 will be nothing more than a "disregard"

 

This is my dream, my lock in disguise.

But  my fear exists only in me,

for I am the true key.

 

 

Nicaragua, Kenya, Ghana

These are the third world countries that need help

Help that will eradicate more diseases

Help that will keep the lives of mothers, aunts, and nieces

 

This is my dream, my lock in disguise.

But  my fear exists only in me,

for I am the true key.

 

I want to be magnificent

I want to help others

I want to be an epidemiologist                 

  

This is my dream, my lock in disguise.

But my fear exists only in me ,

for I am the true key.         

Is this dream achievable? It's definitely not inconcievable.
