The document discusses the author's life experiences and decision to go back to school. As a child, the author faced many obstacles and doors being closed but eventually found the courage to be free. Later experiences like working at a daycare and meeting her husband opened more doors. The biggest door opened with the birth of her daughter Sophia, giving her a new outlook and motivation to improve herself through education so she can be the best mother possible. The only potential obstacle she foresees is if she has to return to work but she is committed to working hard to balance school, parenting, and a possible job.
