The Person I admire One person that I admire is my brother Joe. He is an unlikely hero and one of the most remarkable people I have ever met. He had great families and better life. He was caring, brave, faith, and courage. His people were friendly and neighborly because they liked Joe being a good man and soldier. He was became a Marine Lance Corporal.
I remember my older brother Joe. Growing up was difficult for my older sister, my four brothers, and me. When I was 12 years old, our family had a bad time that past year. Joe was acting like gangster, smoking, drinking, skipping school, failing in school, and fighting. One day, CPS came and took my three brothers and me to live with foster parent but we were separated. That was because no family could take us together and also use sign language. That is why we were separated. Later Joe and my brothers moved to live with his new foster parents in White Swan. I lived with a different foster family and Joe felt anxious about living in White Swan. His new foster parent names were Sean and Faye. They were kind and friendly parents, and they welcomed my brothers into their home.

Joe had a hard time adjusting to his new family, but he did well. When Joe first met them, he was acting like a gangster. His foster dad told him he did not need to act like a gangster, but that it was okay to be “Indian.” He had started a new life at a new school and made new friends. After about week, he felt strange because he was living in a different place, and he was used to living in Yakima. His foster parents were supportive and talked to Joe about his problem. They encouraged him to be positive, experience good things, and told him it was okay to be “Indian”. This helped Joe to feel calm, positive, and not depressed. He went to school every day, learned about native culture and regular education. He was successful in 8th grade and passed middle school. He had a good time to

    What non-fiction character can do all this? I ask you. Have you ever wanted something more? Ever wanted to make your life memorable or meaningful. You can. Why can't you do it? How many people alive today havn't been bored. Not your normal everyday bored. Not Short term bored. Bored with everything. Bored that everyday you have to get up and do the same thing. For hours. Hours piled like bricks on top of each other. These hours fueled by caffeine and fed by sleep. Lacking in excitment and spontanicity. Four walls. A floor and a roof. Yeah! Even when everything is perfect; even when you have nothing to worry about, even when your present situation is admirable at least, you may still be bored. “You can't become a decent horseman until you fall off and get up again, a good number of times.” Says he. “Oh, and as for the scars, broken bones, aching limbs and sore back I consider them just gentle reminders that life is precious - and that maybe, just maybe, I am more fragile than I dare to admit.” He said. And he quote “There's life in a nutshell.” Bear Grylls. As if to say it doesn't matter. As if to say it doesn't matter when you fall as long as you can make it back up. You can't feel good without bad, in other words.…

    After thorough investigation of the stunning piece of writing entitled, “Harriet Tubman: Conductor on The Underground Railroad,” competently written by Ann Petry, I have realized that there are numerous people who were phenomenal heroes and heroines throughout history just like Harriet Tubman. They risked their lives for the safety and well being of others, expressed what they believed in, and never gave up when the obstacles they had to overcome became more and more difficult. Nelson Mandela is one of those people and I robustly admire him and what he did for his people. Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela is a South African anti-apartheid activist and politician who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999, the first to be elected in a fully representative democratic election. I respect and have high regards for him so much because he is an eminent brave man of not only South Africa but around the world. He wanted his people to feel free, be safe, and treated as equal. He wanted peace, joy and happiness. He accomplished this by bringing the apartheid in South Africa to an end.…

    Growing up I never had a hero. I always thought it was a pretended idea to look up to someone when they haven’t done anything to actually gain your respect. I thought that there was no one who I would admire in my life. The reasons being because I thought it have to someone who have done something extraordinary but in recent years I’ve actually found a hero, someone who I can admire with my heart and be proud to say she’s who I admire. That person is my cousin. Her name is Ewa and she is in her early thirties. She is a personnel manager in the one of the largest company in the world as she live with her husband in San Francisco.…

    A person I admire is the current president of the Unites states of America Barack Hussein Obama. He is the 44th president of the USA and is the first African American. He really is mixed raced, but a drop of black blood makes you black. He was mainly raised by his maternal grandparents. He is very intelligent, he is a great father, a loving caring husband and in my opinion a great president.…
