“It is a simple law of attraction that you get back what you put out into the universe. The more give the more you attract, when you put good energy into the world we get more good energy back and make those around us feel good.” Those words are not just words they greatest piece of advice that anyone has ever gave to me. They weren’t words given to me by just anyone, but my mom. She gave me this advice when I was going through some hard times in my life where I felt like everything was just going wrong. But she whipped me right out of that slump and said hey you get back what you put in. My mom has always been this person in my life who just seems to know what to say at the right time. She is full of all this knowledge and it wasn’t until now, at 21 years old, I realized that I should listen to her more. I kind of call her the fountain of knowledge, and I know whenever I need some she is one call away. Thinking about it, I have taken my mom’s words of wisdom and knowledge for granted. I would just pretend to listen, like most kids do with their parents because they don’t want to admit they are right. I have sensed realized that I should listen to her more because she does know a lot about the world and life in general. She is a yoga instructor and knows a lot about healing the body and soul, which most people would think she is crazy with some of the things she says. But now that I am older I realize that having a mom with so much knowledge about the world
My mother has helped me to understand myself, and to develop my characteristics because we have spent the majority of our lives together. One specific example would be in 2015, during an excursion to The Gower Peninsula in Wales, when, over a bonfire, we conversed about my father, and the subject of my conception came up. My mother told me that I was a mistake, because she was worried that she wouldn’t be an adequate mother, and tried abortion. This impacted me considerably, and it has made me live more in the moment because anything can happen, I didn’t feel like I was a mistake, or a failure or any of those labels, but I did realize that my time is limited, and I have to make the most of it. Another example is that during the initial split, my mother lived 5 minutes away from my house, and I would regularly make unscheduled visits to her apartment, and just talk to her. I comforted my mother, and we would talk for many hours. During that time, I hid my feelings behind my humor and
My mother knew both my strengths and failures as a child. For me, I felt as if she knew all the chats and talks we had over the years were about to pay off. She always said things were like “pulling teeth”
I asked my mom many other questions, like who influenced her the most. The person who influenced her the most was her dad, She said that because he’s her dad. Then I asked her if she could relive any part part of her life what would it be and why, she said “I wouldn’t want to relive anything because
My mom is a very perceptive woman. She’s always had a way of explaining the world and the people within it. It came as a great shock to myself when I learned she was extroverted, as I had always known her to exhibit introverted mannerisms. I had assumed she would be the watchful and quiet one, but she’s usually the life of the party. That’s when I started to ask her about her life. She’s experienced enough things to warrant a jaded perspective of the world, yet she still holds some appreciation. I owe her much more than just giving her a mutual respect and completing my chores. I attribute my perspective on the world to my mom. My personality was shaped from her open mind and helped me find my passions in life. I’ve always had a strong sense of who I am, what I want to do in life. I know that I’ll always be welcomed back to her regardless of any mistakes I may
Growing up, my mom was a big impact on my life. Two days of the week she was a dental assistant. The other days she was just my mom. When she came home on the days after work she would smell minty and fresh from working in her dental office. I feel blessed to have been able to have my mother as a constant influence in my life. She showed me that I could be as mother as well as have a good job; I did not need to pick one or the other. My mother taught me how to stand up for myself and how not to be a pushover. One of the most important things I think that my mother taught me was how to be compassionate. Even as a young child when I heard about some of the terrible things that had happened in the world, my heart broke for those
When I am having troubles of my own and need someone who will truly listen, she gives me great advice whether I like the outcome or not. She has guided and molded my sister and I into young ladies who know their self worth and who will not back down from anything. I have always looked up to my mother because she is strong as an ox, and by that I mean mentally, physically, and emotionally. She is simply this compared to any one I have ever met. As I have grown each day I follow her and pay attention to the things she does because one day I hope I can become at least half as great as she is. I say half because honestly, I don’t know if anything can beat
My mother has taught me to be courageous and always stand up for what I believe in. Every day, when I think about all that she went through while raising us, I really am astonished. She has basically given up her life for us making sure that we be successful in everyway. I can remember her letting me try out for club basketball when I was in sixth grade, the money didn’t even daunt her she always found away. However, when someone hurts anyone of us she has no problem standing up for us. I can
My mom has shown me what hard work and determination look like and where it can get you in life. Working hard Ned Chloe going yourself is the best way to reach goals of success and fortune. Everyone works, but if the work is not challenging limits then it is not worth it. In the movie Good Will hunting Will is a genius who struggles to leave his current
As I got older, my mother constantly told me that to achieve mastery over any one subject, you must get 10,000 hours of practice. This was a reference to the book Outliers, written by Malcolm Gladwell. My mother taught me to be honest, to believe in trust, and to never lie. This inspired me because it made me who I am. Through my life, I have never thought of who was inspiring me to go on; urging me to continue to do what I was doing and to strive and aspire for greater things. Now that I think of it, my mother was the one who was inspiring me. I admire my mom because she has a positive attitude, she works hard, and she explains things to me in a way that makes sense.
As clique as it may be, my parents are my two biggest teachers. I won’t go to the extent to say that all I’ve learned is from them, but I will admit that they have heavily impacted my life with their teachings. I think that the best teachings that they have shown me, were ones that they unknowingly taught me. For example, my mother has taught me how to be strong and handle any situation that approaches and
Have you had someone that has gave you advice or wisdom? Well I have and my dad was the one who gave me some words of wisdom and advice. He would always say, "never give up, to always try my best, And if you fall down, get right back up and try again." My dad has always been there for me and my sisters to give us all wisdom and knowledge in all things like sports, school, or life.
Both articles claim that love at first sight exists. There are strengths in each article that make it believable. In the article “Science Explains Instant Attraction” there are many strengths that make it believable. There is research evidence, quotes from the people to who ran the experiment and scientific terms for parts of the brain they were talking about all makes it believable. An example of research evidence is, “Some 63 percent of the time their initial , photograph based interest in dating a person was baked up by their real decision,”.

suddenly became very clear. I have always admired my mom. She is a very strong-willed
My Mother is a very smart woman, and she always is pushing me to do my best. She provides such a wonderful life for me, if it weren’t for her influences, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I know that I will succeed in my life, she taught me that. I know that I am smart, and am capable of doing all the same things and more as anyone else. The confidence I gained from my mother and at ADTP had such a positive impact on my life, it’s hard not to see that with confidence there is next to nothing you can’t accomplish in this
“A lot of times in life, you have to do things you don’t feel like doing.” This is a quote my siblings and I have heard from my mom many times. Whenever we didn’t want to do schoolwork, go to events, or interact with others a certain way, my mother would remind us that just because we don’t want to do something doesn’t mean we shouldn’t. She would also let us know that there is either a reward or punishment for whatever we decide to or not to do. I never fully realized how worthy my mom was to say this until recently, when she graduated with her Master’s degree in education. With all the obligations my mom has, this would seem to be an impossible feat. On the contrary, she made it happen.
