The Person I Admire

My Father My father is a tall man with a pair of glasses. Everyone says he is a kind-hearted man. He often helps his neighbor and some strangers whom he doesn’t know at all. He has really done a lot for others. I don’t like him to do so because I think it has taken him too much time. When I discourage him, he always says with a smile, “The world needs warm hearts.” My father loves his family, and loves his work even better. In the company, he is called “workaholic”. He spends most of his time working, and he often forgets to have meals or to go to bed. As a result, he doesn’t enjoy good health. Such is my father, I love him very much. I am proud of having so good a father.
