Personal Narrative: The Mexican Border

I was raised in the small town of Hidalgo, Texas, just on the side of the Mexican Border. Living there made me grow up thinking that possibilities were limited and there was not much offered to us. Although, along the years, I realized that this town did not define me , and it actually made me strong enough to take on life elsewhere in the future . I remember being in this town ten years ago, and there was only local businesses . The town has grown along with me, and it has opened up opportunities to its community and myself.
My family consists of seven in total, including my parents. I have three older brothers and one older sister. I grew up as the youngest, it made me the opposite of spoil, since I knew my parents had enough on their plate
