<p>I'm no longer sure that my essay is indeed a failure story. My brother says that any essay on failure that doesn't foreground humbleness is off-topic. It's not that I'm not humble, I'm just finding it hard to include humbleness in an essay about persistence and not giving up. I did mention not being perfect, but he says it must mention that other people are better than I am at something.</p>
<p>I'm considering changing it to prompt 4, but that also has some issues because my activities in the essay are not confined to one location, and I cannot easily talk about the difficulties I face or my determination if the central point is how I'm perfectly content somewhere.</p>
<p>Can someone give some feedback on my essay? Would it be easier to stick to prompt 2, or is it easier to change it into a prompt 4 essay?</p>
<p>Thank you very much! :) </p>
