My p-bros are everything to me. They are the reason I keep fighting. They are the reason why I want to join this fraternity so badly. At first it was to grow more professionally with my emails and approach people, but that all changed the moment I got to know my p-family. They all reference how I am like a Dad to them because in a sense I do feel that. I feel like the old man who is struggling to catch up to the young kids at running but will be there to protect, guard and help them whenever they need me. In my darkest time, they have been there to truly bring me light and help me realize that I am capable of running fast if not faster than the youngsters. They are not the only ones that have helped me through this journey. Interviewing the actives have also really helped me realize the true reason why I come here and that is to meet amazing people with so many different connections. Everyone I interviewed was amazing and I always felt at home with every single one of them. The ones that I felt the closest to know who they are or will eventually if/when I do cross but for every active that I connected with whether we had things in common, talked about our favorite pop culture references or just asked how I was doing and wanted to help, I thank you wholeheartedly for the incredible human beings you guys are. It's not enough to say that if/when I do cross that I will easily make the fraternity my 2nd home away from home because I feel like people in this fraternity truly care for us. Some of the most notable people I want to thank so much is my adopted big Lefter. He truly calmed me down and helped me realize that I have potential to do so much more in this world than I realize. He sees the best in me and knows that I will do great in the future which is what anyone can ask for: someone that believes. The biggest and best active in this fraternity, who without a doubt is one of the biggest reasons, if not the biggest reason, that I am still able to keep going in this pledge process is my big Mihir. Nothing he says ever fails to uplift me or make me laugh because he is honestly someone I would want behind my back no matter what. Everytime I get a text or call from him I know he means to help me every single time. I cannot wait to meet not only my big but someone I’m glad to call my friend. All these people, all these individuals have truly helped me so much but there are others who I can’t help but also mention and that is my family. They mean the world to me. They make me professional when I need to be a good big brother, they make me have philanthropy when I would give any and everything to make sure my family is well and taken care of and they make me have brotherhood when I am able to express to them and the people close to me the love I always had for them. When I mention my family I also can’t help but mention my best friend who has helped me get through the toughest times and always makes the stress and pain go away every second they are with me and that is my girlfriend Gricelda. I talk about her a lot and it can sometimes be corny but in reality, I don’t care. I don’t care not because I wish to make people uncomfortable but because she has done the most to keep my head afloat. I want her to know that she is my rock and I want her to feel the most appreciated. My last week of pledging is next week and I am scared and stressed but what keeps me at peace is knowing at the end of the day that I will still have my family, still have my bestfriend, still have my p-family and I will still have my friends.
