When I was thirteen, my mother decided to better herself by going into college. She did not graduate from high school. She got her GED. My mother always wanted my sister and I to be something. She would always tell my sister and I not to follow in her footsteps because she knew it was not a good example. When my mother was in college for those four long years, I watched her struggle. With me being the oldest, she never wanted me to see her struggle. She was always stressed out and I knew from watching her struggle I was not going to be like that. I am glad I saw her struggle. I wanted to graduate from high school and go to college. I did not want to be stressed all the time. My mother always supported my sister and I even when she had school. She …show more content…
That is why I am achieving my dreams now. She taught me that if I want something I need to go for it. I want to make my mother proud. Just like she made me proud. I can never thank my mother enough for making the decision to change her life because it had bettered my siblings and I in so many ways. Even when my mother was unemployed she still bought us the things that we wanted to make us happy. I am making my mother proud now. With graduating from high school three months ago, she has seen me mature into a responsible young lady. She is very supportive of me going to college and following my dreams. I am so happy that I am making her proud because I do not want her to see me struggle. I am grateful that my mom cares so much about my education and my future. I am glad I have her supporting me by my side every day like I supported her. It is a great feeling. I knew not to give up on her because she knew not to give up on me when times were getting tough. I absolutely love talking about my future in teaching with my mother because she tries so hard to help me start my career. She gives me the greatest ideas and suggestions. I am so excited to achieve my dreams like she
I cannot even begin to explain how it varies between how my mom and her seven siblings were all taught and raised. My older sister Tasha was usually the reason most of the rules I have today, were put in place. She was kind of a rebel child. Brittany followed in her footsteps. I threw my parents for a loop when I graduated not only from Utica High School, but from Career Technical Education Center of Licking County with honors and passing my registry exam becoming a Registered Medical Assistant. I really surprised them when I decided to go to college. I was their first child to attend college. My mother was extremely proud of me and even cried because she was so blessed to be able to afford to send me through college. Growing up, my mother was not given the opportunity to go to college due to financial
I’m glad we have Maurice, my mother’s younger brother here today. Ella, her older sister, unfortunately couldn’t make it, but I know the news of my mothers death hit her hard. And I know that she prayed with all her will, for my mother.
It is hard to give a eulogy for one’s parent. More than the death of a classmate or sibling, the death of a parent is not only a loss, but also a reminder that we are all following an inevitable path. We are all “Outrunning Our Shadow” as her friend Fred Hill so provocatively titled his book.
Because she always motivate me to go follow and fight for what I want. I believe that be who are I’m today is such as great inspiration because I wasn’t born here and I almost graduate from college and I have the best family and education value that one can have in this life. For example, I have to take CAT-W test and I feel so disappointment about myself because I already take three times and I fail. But my mom tells me that she knows how I’m and who I want to be in the future that never stop look for my dreams and she always going to be there for me. I think that we you know yourself even when people tell you that you cant do you still be there try to reach your goals
My mother was a complex, multi-faceted person. Many of you here today knew my mother personally, and many of you knew my mother indirectly through one of her family members. You may have known her as a coworker, a friend, or a support person. Of course, all of my mother’s family here today each knew a part of her, a “facet” of her--as a mother, a sister, an aunt, a grandmother, a cousin.
Throughout my life my mom has always been selfless and generous- especially when it came to her children and grandchildren… ever putting her self last! SHE WAS MY EVERYTHING… Unlike my sister, I was the one that gave my parents their grey hair… It took me longer than most to mature, and the truth is- that’s putting it mildly. Yet through all the ups and downs, and all the times I would end up disappointing her expectations of me, one thing NEVER
financially, due to my father falling ill and as a kid I didn’t understand finances or the struggles
She also was on the school board at my grade school, was politically active, and was active in our church. Seeing her stand up to error in public situations gave me the strength to do the same. Sadly, I had to fight error in my high school history class. I disputed my religion teacher's position concerning the civil rights movement (just one of many discussions we had that year). But without Mom's example, I would have been silent like the other kids.
Even before my first tear hits the ground, my mother is there to wipe it away. My mother feels my pain before I can even realize it. She understands my needs before I can even think of them. That’s why we call her a mother. My mother has been an extraordinary influence on my life and always will be. She’s the kind of mom who would always take time out and care for her four children and the mom who would never let her hardships in her life distress her kids. My mother has always been a very strong role model to me, and growing up with someone like her to look up to has changed my life in many ways. She has helped me grow physically, intellectually, and considerately. She taught me to always love, care, and give back to the people I am grateful for.
Also, she has always been a good friend to me and I will never stop thanking my mother for what she represents in my life. Moreover, I am glad that my mother is my role model because without her in that place I don’t know for sure if the person I would have followed would be as good as she is in fulfilling this task. A good role model is what everyone should have
Throughout elementary school, my mom was always proud. She would praise me, and make me feel good. This inspired me to go for my dream of getting a doctorate in physical therapy, and eventually open up my own practice. Middle school, I struggled. I went through many personal devastations, including losing my grandma and dog passing away, all of which caused me to slip into a dark place of depression and sadness.
I divorced my husband and began attending college full time. Working 2 jobs, raising 3 children and attending the nursing program full time was the hardest task I had ever done. It also gave me a great sense of achievement and self worth. After completing school and obtaining my nursing license, I realized that if I was able to withstand that period of time and succeed, I was strong enough to accomplish anything I chose to do and would never allow anything or anyone to stand in my way again.
My mother was not only worry and take care of me, she always by my side when I need her help. I felt sad, my mother always by my side to talk and to console. While I am glad, my mother is always been there to share and listen to me. When I failed to do something, my mother who was gave me advices. She has always supported me in all my choices. She tried to make me strong people with independent minds. I looks to her in hopes that someday I will be as happy, as strong and as well as
Whenever I am faced with a problem and have to make a decision, I know that my mother will be behind me one-hundred percent no matter what avenue I choose to travel down is. It is a great feeling to know that someone is always going to support me in anything I choose to do. It alleviates much of the stress that comes along with making decisions. For example, when I could not make a decision and choose which college I was going to, a community college or a university, my mother reassured me that she would be happy with the choice I made, as long as it made me happy. Having my mother tell me that alleviated much of the pressure I felt to pick a college. I did not want to disappoint her, and knowing that I would not, made the decision a lot easier. ...
All in all, my mother has had a great impact on my life. She encourages me to always grow and blossom into a better person each day of my life. No matter what happens in life, she has taught me to have faith and keep a smile on my face because better days will come. She’s been supportive and makes sure that I continue to prosper. Also, she has helped mold me into the young adult I am today and the success adult that I am sure to be in my future. My mother has greatly affected my life and for that she is greatly
