I’ve lived in New York my entire life, its a place of which people travel to all around the world in pursuit of something great. In my eyes this city is full of life, opportunity and limitless potential. Yes there are several obstacles in New York City, however when people say that if you can make it here, you can truly make it anywhere, it is a statement of experience.
The entire city embraces a sense of culture and history that it does not deny, cultural diffusion and history are evident in the streets. Although at times people on the streets may seem rude and unconcerned with their surroundings, the nonstop mentality of the people and its city shows the amount of zeal and passion people have to succeed and move on to the next task or opportunity in their lives.
My view on New York may be somewhat bias due to the fact that I’ve lived here my entire life, however because I can relate to the other people that live here I can say that New York truly isn’t that bad of a place. I often hear of people that come to the Big Apple and end up thinking that my city is the most atrocious place imaginable, however to a certain extent I think those people have not yet grown to see the place that New York can make you. Strong willed, independent, and a person that can appreciate the different cultures and life around you, as long as you take out a little bit of your time to see the beauty around you.
New York is a place where the food, culture and architecture, exemplify the people that live in this city. In New York people will continue to surround themselves with the beauty that only comes from the people that thrive here.
