Story 4

I always admire the people who work hard to be successful. However, the person who I admire the most is my lovely father. The reasons why I love him and admire him are that he is a very responsible father, a helpful neighbor and a good friend. It is hard to be a responsible person if we don’t have enough money, but my father has done it perfectly. When my brother and I were young, he worked very hard to send us to school until we graduated from high school. His workload was double after we got in school. He always made sure that our family had enough clothes to wear and food to eat. Especially, all the materials that we needed for our school, he always bought them or made them for us. We didn’t have to worry about working to earn money or to help family with financial situation because he never let us knew about unhappy situation. The thing that he always asked from us was that we were good kids, friends and people. Even though he didn’t have a lot of time, he still made sometimes to visit our class and asked our teachers how we were doing. My father is not only a responsible person, but also a helpful neighbor. For instance, one day one of my neighbors had an emergency and needed to rush to the hospital in the middle of the night, he offered to take them and wait over there until morning. Another example, at his work, when the coworkers couldn’t complete their tasks on time, he offered to help them. It was so often that I saw people came to our house with something like fruit or flowers to show thankful for him. Moreover, my father is such a good friend. Any time that his friends need help, he’s always there for them. Even though he didn’t have money to help them, he had good heart. He is a trustful friend. David my father best friend told me, “I’m lucky that I know your dad.” Seeing what my father has done, make me so proud of myself to be his kid. He is my model. I will do what ever it takes to be like him, being responsible, helpful and nice person.
