who has the biggest impact on your life
Popularly, heroes of kids are the ones who have incredible strength or own the x-ray vision such as Superman, Batman and Spiderman… However, my hero is just a normal person with no power or ability to fly. Instead of those supernatural abilities, he has a brave heart which deeply influences my personality. He is Mr Hanh-one of my beloved teachers.
I first met him when I was studying in the second grade. As being stubborn and lazy child at that time, I studied in the class for naughty students and no teacher could put up with our behaviours more than one week. One day, the school administrator assigned a male teacher to take over my class temporarily. At first,I felt weird because he possessed the name of a lady-Hanh . As intended to put the class into the state of disorder, I tried to shout out loud his name as much as possible. The result turned out to be his anger, he asked me to repeat what I had talked with a harsh voice but I mumbled: “Nothing but home truth” and I neglected as I did not hear anything. Being in bad temper, he used all his power to swing a heavy stick into my arm. ‘You are as stubborn as a mule’ he shouted angrily. Of course I felt hurt and immediately run out of the class with a thoughtless belief that he had no right to punish me like that.
In the afternoon, I went swimming to escape myself from distress. Suddenly, a cramp happened to me and I tried to ask for help but no one heard. While I was becoming hopeless, Mr Hanh appeared and saved me from drowning. It was a miracle. If he had not appeared on time, I would not be here to share this story. From that accident, the relationship between Mr Hanh and me was tightened. He gave me some pieces of advice to improve my mind, he explained lessons and taught me a lot. Gradually, I had a passion for Maths and spent more time studying as well as helping my family.
“You are as stubborn as a mule”, surely it will never be forgotten for the rest of my life. I have learned the way to better

    That night, I creeped out of the temple, and started walking towards the horizon, like my old friend Govinda had done many years ago. I closed my eyes and said to myself Siddhartha you are finally free. When I opened my eyes I came back to reality, and I saw my friend Govinda next to the Buddha, asking me if I will also follow the teachings of the Illustrious One. Which I responded, “Govinda, my friend this lifestyle does not fulfill me, however you are now a man and you can take a step without me be your side.” I turned and walked towards the horizon, I turned and waved my hand at him, but something told me that this time I would see him…

    My philosophy of nursing comes directly from my desire to help people. I want to be a nurse because I enjoy being around people in their times of need and I get internal satisfaction by serving those that need help.

    Introducing myself

    Since I spent most of my childhood with my mother, I would like to introduce her first. I would say she was an all mighty women. She had multiple jobs for me; sometimes she was a philosopher, teacher, or a doctor trying to teach me math and reading. I was kind of a weak boy when I was young often had a headache or stomachache, and when she rubbed the certain part of my body it cured just like a magic. There was a one great teaching that really reminds and motivates my life purpose. "Live for the poor" She just kept telling me but could not understand until I reach the real meaning of that. So soon, me and my mother went to a market. There is a special form of a market in Korea that merchants do not have particular building to sell their stuff. There are lots of types of merchants who stock the small factory in their car and sell it on street or bring foods, vegetables, and clothes that they made from their factory. I still remember the special moment that I had in the market. My mother and I usually went there to buy foods or just for fun and at some point she gave me 5 dollars to treat myself. So I was thinking really serious about what should I buy for it. It was not a small amount of money. But I saw a poor guy who did not have legs. He used his hands when he had to move with gloves on it. I became more serious. In my head, there were an angel and a devil who say that I should donate 5 dollars, or since I had a tired day, I need to treat myself. Suddenly, I felt a mysterious feeling and tried to look at different angles that how would he feel like? How is he going to feed himself? Would money help him? I put my 5 dollars in the box. He bowed to me for appreciating…
