Explain How A Significant Person Has Impacted Your Life

Of all of the people I have encountered in my life so far, my father is the one to leave the greatest impact. I remember my dad would always ask me “ do you want to be the boss or be bossed? ” These word are what drives me to work hard and try my best in everything that I do. Maybe it was the fact that I have seen him grow so much over the years that his words and actions have affected me so much today. Through these words and actions I have been able to think of what i want to do and where I want to be in life after I graduate high school.

My mother ecstatically captured these moments on camera. Five years and several vacations later, I have come to value what I have learned from these many journeys of history, politics, different cultures, and mostly my family and myself. I honestly cherish the different cultures that my mother has opened to me, my life had been transformed by what she has taught me at home. Starting at a young age, I would accompany my mother to Father Carr 's Place 2B, a local food bank. Every year we would spend our Thanksgiving as a family distributing food to Homebound people as well as engaging them in simple conversation. This did not seem like a big deal to me, but to the people needing the companionship, it was everything. From these experiences I have learned that the concept of giving to others is more beneficial to my end than theirs. Throughout my life, everything that my mother has accomplished has been eclipsed by the thought behind it. All of the experiences that I have encountered either at home or on vacation have been enlightened through her true passion for learning and devotion to humanity. Through her never ending love of everyone and everything that she has encountered, I see hope. Next year, I will be miles away, but my mother will always be with me.

Which, in my case the one who has influenced me the most into becoming a significant person would be my grandmother. She doesn’t let her sickness get in the way of helping others and telling me to never give up on my education. She would always say “work hard on anything that you believe in so even when times are tough.” My grandma is always there if needed either by helping in a way to get things done or by keeping people company. She’s full with an outstanding spirit, never asks for anything in return after getting the stuff done. It comes to show that her actions speak louder than words could ever do, By hearing all of the good things she does for people makes me want to become a better person. Therefore, I want to be able to assist people with a wide range of situations that they are facing

The women who have impacted my life the most is my wife and mom because my mom was a single parent for about 7 years before she met my stepfather. My biological father was involved but lived in another country for most of my youth so I only got to spend two weeks with him a year through my adolescents. My mom was the woman that helped mold me and supported me. She helped me grow and become who I am today. I have inherited her calm personality, her love for shopping and her attitude to try and focus and steer through the storms you may encounter in life because there is always a bright side to things we may face in our lives.

The person that has probably influenced me the most throughout my life is my best friend, Jalen Williams. We grew up doing everything together ever since kindergarten. We’ve only had two of the same classes, in kinder and first grade, but outside of school we would hang out 24/7. There was even a period of time when I had to live with him for two years because of financial issues. Jalen has not only taught me what a great friendship is, but also how to find the brightside in any situation.

Throughout my life there have been few people that have made an impact in my life, but the one that has made the greatest influence in me is my older and only sister, Diana Cienfuegos. Although we often argue, I know I was very fortunate to have someone who guided me through the right path in life. My sister has been my role model as a student, given me strength when I need it, and helped me in whatever she could to make me happy.

The teachers, they can point to and say, “That individual assisted me in becoming the person I am today.” For me, I have one special person that I can do that to. This individual is not only my favorite teacher, but very influential in my life. Katie Josef, my Ed Tech teacher, has shown me what true passion for the field of education looks like. I witness her upbeat personality, and get to experience the kindness she exuberates to her students on a daily basis. She drives the individuals in her class to succeed to their best ability. She inspires me to become an outstanding teacher in whatever field I choose to pursue. Mrs. J has shown me what a teacher that cares for her students truly looks like. With the love and support she shows, it is no mystery how she creates unbreakable bonds with her students- bonds that last for many years, even after a student's graduation. I desire to create these same bonds with my future

A person that has had a profound impact on me during my time here at Virginia Commonwealth University is Rachel Wasilewski. Rachel is the Senior Recruiter for the School of Engineering. I first met Rachel after I received an email from the Welcome Center in the School of Engineering, requesting volunteers to help run Open House for prospective students and their families. She was one of the first staff members at VCU that shaped my collegiate experience in a positive manner. Over the past three years and 13 Open Houses later, I have gotten very close to her and have developed a very meaningful relationship. I chose to write about Rachel because she has provided me with the guidance and support needed to persevere through the grueling years

When asked who has had a significant influence on me, I was forced to stretch my mind. There are so many people who have pushed me to become a better version of myself in every way possible, but there is one person in specific who comes to mind. My sister, Emma Riedl, has been a role model to me since I was able to walk (she taught me). She is my hero and best friend. Emma is has had a significant influence on me due to her drive and hard work and her ability to be strong and independent.

My mother, she's my favorite best person. She's always with me since i was a kid she's been there when I fall down and need her help. She helped me with my homework when I was small and when I was sick and she would take care of me. This has been a great example for me that we should always help people just the way my mother did because you never know when you will most need it. Being in these places with my family has made me a better person that is in love with life. This has showed me a different way of seeing bad things and moments and replace it with memories that i will never

In my high school career the person that had influenced me the most was Mrs. Georgia Stohr. She was my freshman English teacher and yearbook advisor through junior year. During my sophomore year she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. She taught me what it truly meant to be strong and loving. Throughout her battle she was always energetic and happy. She tried not to complain or be seen in pain. She put the yearbook staff and her students before her health in some cases and tried to be with us as much as possible. She would give us updates and make sure we knew exactly what was happening to her, even towards the end of her battle. Once her hair fell out she would wear funny hats and once, she came into class wearing a Victorian

Other people such as my brother, my cousins, teachers, and family, they are all great influences and impact my life. Without them I would not be the person I am today. My brother has been a great influence on me and my cousins. I hope to be as great as an influence as my brother is to me to younger children.

She tells me about my aunts and uncles, as does my mom. She also helps lift me out of the pit of rage when I feel like that. She feels for me and understands me the most other

I think the person that had the greatest impact on my life, would be my friend Yoshi. In my eyes, she?s the strongest person in the world. She was my best friend. She?s taught me to be myself, to not be a shadow, to not take everything to heart.

I think the person who has had the most profound effect on my life besides my parents is my grandfather. I never realized before how much of an effect he had on my interests and goals for the future. Years ago, he used to tell me stories about historical events and experiences he had fighting in Vietnam and my great grandfather fighting in World War 2. His vivid descriptions always made it so interesting and, in some cases, more light-hearted than what actually happened. To this day he still has more stories to tell me, and never fails to captivate my interest. In doing this, he opened my eyes to my biggest interest, history, and encouraged me to pursue this interest throughout school. I feel like it would help to give a short summary of his life and how it affected me.
