Undergraduate / "My reflection through the car window" - common app essay [2]
As I looked at my reflection through the car window, I came to understand that the car's problems truly mirrored who I am as a person. Much like my car's horrendous brakes and its inability to slow me down smoothly, it reminded me of life's unpredictability that had left me needing control and balance. The brakes helped me understand the significance of 'braking' in life. The ability to decelerate, come to a stop, and accelerate in life's unexpected turns and curves was a gift for many people. I fortunately enough was gifted the opportunity to fulfill a family responsibility by taking leadership.
I truly don't know how to connect bad brakes and me being 'urged/encouraged' to work in my family business because of my dads femur injury.
