The factors love plays in my life
Love is my relationships with my family and my friends. Love determines my relationship within myself, and overall love is essential for everything involving another human being. Love can be an enormous amount of feelings in one, with love you feel anger, sadness, happiness, and joy. Personally, I think love is everything in life. Love is an amazing thing, and primarily, love brings happiness.

My life in emojis
This emoji signifies my birth
This emoji signifies when I began to walk.
The dancer, bow and lipstick signify when I started dancing and cheerleading; and that was as soon as I could walk.
This baby signifies the birth of my brother.
The next three emojis, the statue of liberty, plane, and the sunset over the city signify when I moved from New York down to North Carolina.
These emojis show where I am currently in life; studying in high school taking classes to become a Pediatrician.
