Someone Special to be my Hero Wade Boggs once said anyone can be a father but it takes someone special to be a dad. That would be my father because he was a great father, husband, and soldier. I still look up to him and he keeps inspiring me to become better and be better I love him and I’m honored to be writing this essay about why I think this. As I said he was a father first, he taught me no matter what happen that family always came first because you cannot always trust them but they would be there for you if you needed them. He also taught me to respect your wife because things will get tough and there will be rough patches but she is the mother to your children and you will always love her for her and her flaws. He also taught me that …show more content…
He also taught me that you also needed to be courageous because life is tough and you need the courage to stand up to it and get the job done. Last he taught me to have honor in whatever I do because I did it and no one can take that away from me. That’s also why I joined the military to honor my father and be an inspiration to my kids like he was to me. Finally he was a husband to my mother where I learned many things from him. One thing is that it is harder to be honest than to lie and that lies can have devastating effects on a marriage so it’s always better to just be honest. He also taught me that we are human and we are not always right no matter how much we think we are right. Last he taught me to be strong because being a husband means to be the rock in the relationship and you have to be there for her no matter what situation is going on. This is why I see him as my dad not just my father because he is a great father which taught and inspired me to be a great father. He was a great soldier which taught and inspired me to be the best person I can be. Finally he was a great husband which inspires me to keep being a great husband. I love my dad and I hope he will stay around for as long as he
He demonstrated to me, every single day, the importance of honest, hard work and dedication. Through perseverance and great effort, my family was eventually able to realize our dream. Working
When I was getting bullied, he showed me how to ignore them as if thay weren't there. He taught me how to be independent. In doing so, I saw something new. I experienced something I hadn't seen before.
To begin with he taught me how to do things the right way. My papaw has shared his wisdom and experience
The first reason my dad is a true hero is because of all the amazing things he has done. When I asked him what selfless acts he has done
My mother taught me a kaleidoscopic range of lessons: how to cook, how to forgive, but above all, how to live.
He showed me that a person does not have to have the nicest things in life to be happy, loving those around you will bring you true happiness. Even though we both had quirks like having little patience or being total recluses, we both had a funny way of showing love. Dave showed me that it is okay to take chances and to always try to improve upon yourself. Most importantly, is to express love to those around you even though you may not be in the best of moods. Humans are not psychic beings, we cannot tell when tragedy will strike and we will be taken from this earth. Dave taught my mom an important lesson which she passed on to me, “Live every day to the fullest and always tell the ones you love that you love them, even when you are angry.” I appreciate this lesson and will continue to pass it on to those that I care about, I can only hope to be as loved as he was one day, until then his wisdom will live somewhere in the back of my mind until I too
“My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.” Jim Valvano. My dad is the best guy in the world. There are two main reasons that I would like to pay tribute to my dad; my dad was there for me when I needed him the most, and he also believed in me when I did not.
Everything he does, is for us. The biggest thing my dad has done for me is provide me with the opportunity to go to college. At 19 years old, working a dead end waitress job, there was no way I was going to be able to pay for college. Financial aid was not an option and
He plays games with me that I enjoy, whether it be a board or a video game. He also allows me on vacation so that I can examine other parts of the world as opposed to staying purely in Michigan. My father also lets me camping with him so that I can observe and experience nature in a higher way sophisticated manner. In addition to all of this he also explains other cultures and helps me to learn about them. He also attempts to let me travel with him to places such as the movies where I can have an entertaining time. And in all of these ways he helps me to have a cheerful and interesting
When I think of a hero, I think of someone who is brave, strong, hardworking, trustworthy, and unselfish. Someone who can protect you and make life better; my dad has all of those qualities. My dad was raised by my grandma and had a very different life growing up compared to mine. He grew up where his brother now lives, outside of Brooks Oregon. He really liked riding 4-wheelers, motorcycles and skateboards when he was my age. He also really enjoyed drawing and learning. He graduated from McNary High School. After high school he went to college where he then had to drop out because of money reasons. Later on he went to college again and graduated with a degree in computers and engineering after I was born. Right after college he started working at Intel Corporation. After about 4 years he got a job at Lam Research where he works on wafers and chips for computers and
The quality that I admire the most about my father is how hard working he is. When my father was in high school he ran track. He worked hard everyday and night. He always fought the temptation of being lazy and giving into peer pressure. His hard work paid off and he made it to states his senior year. He also holds many records at his high school. If you ever walk through the hallway of Fairview High School, where the trophy case is you will see a picture of my father with his track records that still to this day have not been broken. His dedication has worn off on me with softball. Although, I do not possess any records, I still train hard in hopes of making my own records. I hope one day I can be the best, just like he was. My father will continue to make a positive impact on my life. His constant guidance and advice, always being there for me and his great qualities have influenced me and made me the person I am
In conclusion, I am daddy's little girl and proud of that. I could not of asked for a better father. My dad has always been there for me and I wil always be there for him. I respect my father because he deserves to be. He stayed and was a father and never took the easy way out like in the world today most fathers do. I believe my father is the best at everything he does. He has been through so much in his life and still is a happy wonderful man; I would have been sad and depressed if I had to go through hald as much as my father. Dad is strong and looks ahead not behind, he always say the past is the past "always
My dad has always been my biggest motivator and the reason for growing up the way I did. We had a very tight relationship; I was definitely a "daddy's girl." I always wanted to be around him, he was someone I looked up to when I was younger. I always looked at him like he was so much more
His attitude made me find the meaning of having fun and enjoying life for the small moments it
I believe that having a relationship that changes your life or changes the way you think or do something is very valuable. Having that kind of relationship with my father is very impactful on my life. All the positive aspects of our relationship comes to my mind. Reflecting on our relationship, many stories are emphasized in our relationship; stories that were impacting and made me who I am to this moment. My dad is a business owner, builder, ex-skater, drum player, video gamer, soccer player, loving husband and father, and a faithful servant to our Lord, Jesus Christ. So being able to relate to my dad is very easy to me, for I share many of those talents and hobbies. As the oldest son in the family I didn't really have anyone to look up to or strive to be like a certain person that was close to my age. That led me to walk in my dad’s footsteps. Watching my dad give glory to God for all that he has given to our family was truly incredible to me. My dad’s work rate, his ability to help others when they need it most, his ability to get tasks done thoroughly was amazing to me. I truly know that he is a wonderful role model for me. Three stories come to mind when I think of my dad. He taught me various things in every one, they are: to listen to God when you struggle, to work hard and finish things well, and to love others even when we dislike their motives or actions.
