Little Lessons I've learned on my way <br>
Lesson 1: Don't Lose Your Path <br>
In his poem, The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost wrote, "Two roads diverge in t <br>
he woods, and I took the one least <br>
traveled by/ And that has made all the difference." In this poem, the narra <br>
tor had a choice of two roads. However, I've discovered that life is a litt <br>
le more complicated. Sometimes the path we embark on is not always the one <br>
we choose. Sometimes we are pushed or pulled in certain directions and we ha <br>
ve to react to our environment. <br>
My path to a college education has been filled with bumps, potholes, detours <br>
and roadblocks. The signs often read "yield" and "do not enter." The path <br>
has not always been clear, but I've kept my eyes opened, focused on the road <br>
ahead, and the experience has made all the difference. <br>
During my freshman year in high school, my mother remarried and I had to mo <br>
ve from Colorado to Kentucky. One year later, we relocated back to Colorado <br>
after they divorced. During my junior year in high school, my mother remar <br>
ried again and I had to change schools again, although we remained in Colora <br>
do. Thus, I did not have a sense of continuity during high school and altho <br>
ugh I recognized that my path would lead me to college, I was not ready to c <br>
ommit myself to school full time. Instead I went to work full time as a groc <br>
ery clerk and worked my way up to assistant manager. I then moved into cust <br>
omer service work and finally fell into an advertising manager position. I t <br>
ook several night courses during this period until I was ready to commit to <br>
school full time. Although I could have continued with work, I knew that it <br>
was not what I wanted to do and once I committed myself to attending school <br>
and realized that I wanted to study Sociology, I have proven myself to be a <br>
n above average student. This past year, I earned all "A"s in my courses. <br>
Although it took me a bit longer to complete my undergraduate education, I c <br>
onsider it to be my greatest success. I paid for it, I struggled through it <br>
, and I gave up a great deal of my life for it. I also realize that my educ <br>
ational path is not complete. I believe that my struggles, perseverance, and <br>
triumph through my undergraduate studies qualify me as an excellent Ph.D ca <br>
ndidate in your Political Sociology department. <br>
Lesson 2: Become an Active Listener <br>
When I was growing up, whenever the phone would ring, my mother would say, " <br>
the doctor is in." I believe that one of my strengths lie in the way I comm <br>
unicate and deal with children. I think that we must become active listener <br>
s in order to understand each other. During my internship with the Instititu <br>
te for Social Justice, I worked with inmates on research for alternative soc <br>
ial models of punishment. In order to do the job effectively, I needed to e <br>
mpathize with the inmates so that I could understand their concerns and need <br>
s and remedy any self-destructive conduct they exhibit. The work also invol <br>
ved an all out hunt on my part to place these inmates into environments and <br>
programs that would prove healthy for them. <br>
I maintained a working relationship with my friends at the Institute and che <br>
cked their progress weekly. I believe that the power to empathize, or the a <br>
bility to put yourself in someone else's place begins with an open mind. Wh <br>
en I say that we must become active listeners in order to understand one ano <br>
ther, I mean to say that there are subtle movements in our speech, certain w <br>
ords that we use, certain utterances that are not directed towards us, certa <br>
in circumstances unrevealed to us. We must endeavor to hear all of them. I <br>
believe that this skill will help me greatly as a Ph.D candidate in your de <br>
partment. <br>
Lesson 3: Learn From Your Experiences <br>
In 1997, my mother was diagnosed with lupus. I was enrolled in a full cours <br>
e load but I dropped three classes so that I could spend more time with my m <br>
other and comfort her as much as I could. I felt so helpless because I did <br>
not know how to help her. I resolved to know more about the disease, I atte <br>
nded Lupus support group meetings and found out about a diet that helps regu <br>
late the body's immune system. I also talked to several neurologists and re <br>
searched several drugs that were FDA approved. Through our collective effort <br>
, we found a terrific drug and the disease has stabilized for almost a year <br>
. This experience has taught me that even if a subject is miles away from th <br>
e reach of your contemplation, you can learn much from research and from the <br>
knowledge and experience of others. <br>
And as I offer myself as a Ph.D candidate in your Political Sociology depart <br>
ment, I bring to the table years of work experience which includes steady an <br>
d continuous promotions, an unrelenting pursuit for knowledge, a compassion <br>
for children and people, and a belief that anything is possible if we can ac <br>
tively imagine it into existence. Throughout my adult life, I never lost my <br>
path and I hope that you will allow me to continue this path at the Universi <br>
ty of Nebraska. <br>

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly <br>
or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. <br>
