My Mom Essay

There have been a vast number of lives that have touched mine. Many different people have shared a piece of their soul in my formation. However, it is my mother who is the most important and most influential person in my life. My mother raised me by herself since the day I was born. My father was abusive and she left to make a better life for the both of us. She has worked as many as four jobs at one time. My mother wants to make sure my brothers and I have a better life than she did. It hasn’t always been easy for her, taking care of us on her own, trying to pay bills and making sure we had everything we needed. My mom has always had us involved in sports at a very young age. We always were doing something or involved in something

Growing up I was an abused child who wanted nothing more than to break free of the horrible torture that was imposed on me every day of my childhood. My mother hated me, and she was not shy in saying so. She would belittle me as if it gave her some kind of sick pleasure in destroying my fragile, developing ego. Naturally, I would grow up to be a person who didn’t have any ambition or goals for the future. This was because I focused all of my energy on the thought of getting away. I just wanted to be free, somewhere, anywhere; it didn’t matter to me.

It has been one year since the death of my beloved sister Cheryl. Since then, Roger and I have married. It was wonderful! All the people we met last year were there; all the friends I made at my job as a receptionist. Cheryl’s friend Nancy and her mother came and they hired a babysitter for Cheryl’s son Henry Liberty. But, most surprisingly, my father was there for a bit! He started by saying that he was sorry about what had happened my whole life and how he should of tried to get us back. Then, I told him that I know it was for the best and that we should not cling to the past, even though I did that my whole life. Essentially I was being hypocritical. Nonetheless, he said that he was proud of me, and that if my mother was alive she would

The next day, we were going to Ontario, but my dad wasn’t going to come, for some unknown reason. We went to the airport, while my mom slowly wiped tears streaming down her face before anyone could notice them. When we arrived in Ontario, Canada we were greeted by our cousins who we hadn’t seen for nearly a year. They hugged us, and cried for a while, and then they took us to their house. When we got there, we called our dad to inform him that we had arrived, but he never picked up. We called him again, but he didn’t pick up the call. We called him about five times, but he didn’t answer the call. When we called him later that day, the phone got disconnected. I wiped a tear from my eyes,

Before I knew he was my dad I called him “BJ”. I thought he was my mom's really close friend. After a soccer game on October 6th 2008, I got home and my parents told me to play for a while outside while they had a “grown-up talk.” After about a half an hour they came outside and called me inside and told me to sit down. My parents then explained to me that “BJ” was actually my dad. I was told that he was overseas at war and now he was back for good. I was overjoyed with the news. This is special to me because before my dad came home it was just my mom and I, so knowing I had dad, back then was a big

Having my dad around all the time wasn’t my everyday routine. I’d see him once or twice a week so I wasn’t very much used to see him every day. One day I came home after school and he and my mom were on the balcony talking, the notice I was staring, they both looked at me and called for a family meeting by the tone of their voices I could tell there was

Growing up I didn’t really know how to deal with my parent’s divorce cause I never payed no mind to it. I thought it was just a normal thing growing up with one parent in the house. I though just living with just with the mother in the house and seeing my dad maybe once a year was normal for most people. Just spending a weekend at my dads was a big deal because all we would do is have fun and play games. It seemed like a vacation more than anything to me, so I didn’t really have a problem with it. But once I started to get a little older I started to miss the father son bond that I saw on TV and even at school. Dads would come pick there kids up from school every day or their dad would meet them at the bus and then walk with them home every

There are many people that have the strongest impact in your lives. They are your role model and you want to be like them. These can be your family members, friends, or people that you just see on T.V. Whoever they might be they impacted your life because of want you learned from them.

In the years following his impressive film debut for I Killed My Mother (09) at the age of only nineteen, Xavier Dolan (French-Canadian actor, director, screenwriter, editor, costume designer and producer) has withheld his space in the limelight.

In 1859 Henry Ward Beecher said, "the mother’s heart is the child’s schoolroom." I believe that statement because of experiences I’ve had with my own mother. I have learned more about life from her than from my 15 years of schooling. Over the last 20 years my mother has taught me many valuable lessons just by being a living example of compassion, thoughtfulness, and generosity. She is an angel that has protected and carried me throughout life.

What can one say about their mother? One may talk about her positive and negative

I often wondered if my mother would have chosen to immigrate to the United States of America, after repatriating to Holland, to begin a new life from absolutely nothing but the clothes on our backs for the second time, if my parents had stayed together. Was it their divorce that inspired Mom to lead us on our path to prosperity? Eventually I understood that my Mom’s ultimate motivation was her vision of a brighter future for her family, regardless of her marital status. In Holland, Mom could not bare to watch her mother be the sole breadwinner and living off a Dutch government's subsidized income was equally unacceptable. Following Aasje’s death, Evie observed Oma, overcome with grief, lose her spirit, and she aspired for a better life

My mother, Pam Krull, fits every one of those. Today I decided to pick the three that I thought was most important to me.
