My Family

My family

One day a teacher asked us who has been an influence for us in our lives. Most of my classmates start talking about how an actors, writers even war heroes, have been influenced in their lives. I noticed that most of them have been influenced by public people. Then I asked to myself, have I ever been influenced by some important person that helped me be the person that I am today? And my answer was immediately, of course I have been. The people that have had influence on me are the most important human beings, my family. I can begin the written of my life with a picture of my grandparents. They gave me the things that I needed to grow up in the moment that I needed, and the most important thing, the love. Like for example, when my parents divorced, my grandparents always were there when I, my sister and brothers needed them. My father left the house and my mom, sister, my two brothers and I moved to my grandparent’s house. After having been on a difficult divorce of my parents, I remember the days living with my grandparents as the best days of my life.

With my mother working all day, we certainly were being raised by my grandparents. They cared for us when we were sick and they gave us the necessary things to get better. They taught us good values like how to behave, to respect other people, and to share with other people. I really appreciate everything they have taught us.

And of course for the last but not least important, another person has been influenced on my life was my mother. The entire person, who I am now, is because of her, for the great example that she gave to me. She gave me everything that I needed to become somebody in the future. Sometimes I did not understand why she had to be out all day. But now I really appreciate everything she has taught me, and I understand why she did certain things, and it is because my mother wanted the best for me and my brothers, even though that she would not spending time with us, and sometimes I was angry, but now, I appreciate her words of wisdom and all that she worked to give us everything. My mother was the best.

I had moments in which I laughed, or I was sad, but there are always moments that I will remember and in a conclusion, my family made the difference in many of the situations that life gives me and without them I would be unable to give to my daughter the love and support which she needs to become an mature and responsible adult.
