Like Kristina I admire my mom, and because I admire my mom, I admire my sister as well. My mom was one of the greatest people ever and just the thought of her makes everything worth it. It’s hard to type, as i sit here and hold back tears thinking of what was. She was so strong and didn’t care about what anyone thought. A lot of people felt this way about her as well. I won’t go into detail because but i will say that it has been 11 years, yesterday since she passed and I can still hear her voice, I can still see her face and that is what keeps me going. To admire someone or something is to believe in it wholeheartedly, to know that no matter what you are feeling, that one thing will make you smile and make all the pain go away. What I most admired about her was her strength, her humour and the fact that she was respected by so many. Admire is a strong word to use here, but i guess there is no other so: I admire many because, they share certain qualities that my mother had. My sister for example is just like my mom, with certain characteristics ripped straight from my dad. I admire my sister because when the world decided to flip on my family, she stood tall at the age of 14 and flipped the world back. To sum up, I admire my mother and my sister because without them I wouldn’t be here. Honourable mention: My Dad and Brother.
