The Beginning-The life of Jerron Ochoa
I was born in New York City, in 1999. The parents who bore and raised me went by the names Marianna and Recaldo Ochoa. I have one older brother and sister, i was born far later than both my siblings, my sister who is the second youngest is 13 years older than me. -
Trust vs Mistrust birth-1 year of age
As a child born and raised by loving parents, it was not hard for me to build up a sense of trust for people, though this trait could make me a bit naive, it was still easy for me to trust my parents and siblings. At that time, the only thing i really disliked was fighting, whenever my mother, father or, siblings fought, it always put me into distress and caused me to cry. These traits have carried over to my adult life as I still hate fighting, yet love my siblings and parents dearly. -
Autonomy vs. Shame/Doubt 1-3
On one partly cloudy day, me my father and mother were outside relaxing, while our neighbors kids were playing kickball. After a time they accidentally kicked the ball over our side, I than ran out of our porch yelling I'll get it as I approached the stairs my mother told me to stay I however ignored her I soon regretted that as i meet the edge of our porch stairs head first. I would never forget that day,as it impacted my life greatly, my eyesight was never the same and started listening. -
Initiative vs. Guilt 3-5
I didn't have many friends when i was young but I was still a very social person. Most of the time i would hang out with a group of people listening to their conversations in school, occasionally saying a word or two. Though I did have some individual people i would play and talk with. I always hated to play by my self and would rather play with other kids. Not much of my social attitude carried over when i became an adult, in fact I became more and more reserved and shy as i grew older. -
Industry vs. Inferiority 5-12
Between the ages 5 and 12 I was obsessed with one thing in particular: becoming the class clown. I would always compare myself to other people comedic wise, whether it be random loud outbursts in attempt to be funny, or trying to think of a hilarious one-liner, I had always tried to be the class clown, so much so i was down right unfunny. I had always tried to reach the status of class clown yet i never got it. This may have caused my tendency to being so quite. -
Identity vs. Role Confusion 12-18
As I grew older I found myself being drawn to the idea of becoming a doctor. In fact, it was a dream of mine ever since i was young. I had always wanted to help people, make a difference in their lives, it was always a joy to me whenever I saw someone happy. I had always thought that was who i wanted to be so I perused that dream in attempt to make it a reality. I believe I gained my passion of helping people from my mother who was a kind and gentle nurse, maybe it runs in the family? -
Intimacy vs. Isolation 18-40
At the time of my 12th year in school, i had developed my first crush, However my feelings where never responded to, Intimacy wise I was lonely, I felt like I would never find "the one" as a lonely child for most of my life I could never socialize well, let alone talk to a girl. I was ready to give up, isolate myself, yet as god would have it I had found her. We fell in love fast, well so she said, though it felt to long for it to finally happen for me. I guess all i needed was an assertive one. -
Generativity vs. Stagnation 40-65
My life as a middle adult was a slow but good one, one daughter and one son was what we raised. We had raised them to be though and hardy but also kind and courteous in a nice open spaced house. As me and my wife grew older we grew more tired and weak, but never gave up. Showing the way to our kids and how to live in the real world. -
Integrity vs. Despair 65 and beyond
As I reach the end of my long adventure that is life, i start to think back to my childhood, the innocents, the happiness, the sadness, the laughs, where did all that time go? I think about all I should've and shouldn't s, my loving parents and siblings. I hope that my life was impact full, and helped other people. I am proud of what my kids have accomplished and achieved. I feel that whatever time i have left can be used even more of a blessing to other people. -
The end. A letter to my family
Dear loving family, If you are reading this than we must have already said goodbye, I just want to tell you all that I'm so proud of my two beloved kids for all that you've for use and your families, I hope you all remember the kindness I had and to always help one another, I love you all and God bless, never forget his promises. The only regrets I leave are the wasted childhood i had, i feel I could have done so much more, but I am still content with my life. I love you all
Best wishes-Jerron
