Inspire Me More
If there's one thing in life I continuously look for and cannot live without, it's "inspiration." Nothing is worse than being demotivated, discouraged, and misunderstood by the one you love. With inspiration comes happiness from within, joy in activities you've never thought of doing, beauty in things you've never seen, and love in places your heart's never been to. Since inspiration doesn't stick around forever, it's important to be with someone who inspires you. I want to be inspired to better a better person as much as I inspire them. I want to continuously push myself forwards in every aspect of my life -- be it business, education, beliefs, tennis, values, attitudes, and mindset.
My mother is the most inspiring person in my life. I have learned so much from her, just from seeing her care for my siblings and myself. My mother has taught me that strength and independence are important in life and that I can never stop at what I want to do. I am very thankful for the love and life I receive from my mother.
I have always thought of my mom as strong and independent. My mom is the mother of four children, all of which she raised on her own. I know that raising children alone is not easy at all, which is one reason why I always thought of my mom as strong. My mom managed to work, raise her children and keep us happy and healthy. My mom has told me before that raising her children was hard and she did struggle at times. I commend my mother for staying strong and making her children her first priority. As I was growing up I learned to be independent from my mother. She has always taught me that if I wanted something or needed something done that I had to do it for myself. I learned to depend on no one but myself from my mother. I really look up to my mother for everything she has done to provide for her family, even during hard times.
Now that I am in College my mom is always encouraging me
