What if you were not raised up with your parents or you had to pick up everything and move to a different country that’s how my dads life started. My dad, was born on June 18, 1968 in Pakistan. He had many accomplishments, and tragedies during a young age, but I am here to only talk about the important ones. My dad has not only been father, but also my mentor and my best friend.
My dad grew up with his grandmother for the first 11 years of his life. You guys are probably wondering why… It wasn’t because his parents died, or they didn’t like him. When he was born his grandmother wanted their first grand child to live with her.

That same year they decided to move to the United States of America, that is where his whole life changed. He was know longer in a small city where everyone knew each other. His parents had started a limo company in Dallas when they moved. He had to make all new friends. The hardest part for him was learning to speak English and just picking everything up and moving, but in the long run it paid off. Over the years my dad has taught me that it is our responsibility to help the less fortunate. Every year my dad donates millions of dollars to the less fortunate. This has taught me that if god has gave you a good life maybe you should help other people also. For example, one time it was in the middle of the night at I was with my dad and someone’s car had broken down on the highway he got out and helped the family change their tire.
He graduated from the University of North Texas getting a business degree. His family had high expatiations of him because everyone before him had graduated from college. When my dad finished college his parents gave them their limo company from a small company know it is the biggest limo company in Texas. His family had put all their
