Through all of my accomplishments and disappointments, I have always been es pecially proud of the dedication and fervor I possess for my personal belief s and values. Unfortunately, it has often been difficult for me to remain ou twardly firm and confident in a town where most people think alike and rejec t exceptions. Whenever I have expressed my position as a pro-life advocate, peers have badgered, accused, and ridiculed me for simply believing in somet hing that they scorn. Despite all the pressure, I never waivered from my bel ief, yet I became frustrated and began to lose the courage to publicly expre ss my opinion on this controversial topic. To gain some insight and reassura nce for myself, I attended the New Jersey Right to Life Convention in the sp ring of 1995. This experience uplifted me and offered great inspiration and enlightenment. At the convention I received an overwhelming amount of suppor t and encouragement from wonderful people who advocate the very principles I believe in. This convention was so inspiring that the next day in school I was able to relate my experience to one of my biggest opponents on the subje ct. Also, the abundant information available at the convention enabled me to defend my position on abortion more effectively. Attending this convention accomplished two things. It proved my commitment to my belief, in that I too k the initiative to strengthen and support my opinion, refusing to give up o r lose heart. Unlike many others, I was eager and willing to gain new knowle dge so I may successfully promote my belief to others. In addition, this con vention invigorated my confidence to stand up for what I believe in and taug ht me to never lose the courage of my convictions
