There are actually three people that I look up too: My Mom, Dad, and Brother. I look up to my dad because he has always set a good example for me. When I get into trouble, he yells but after words, we talk about it. Also, he has taught me that my word is my honor. When I tell someone that I am going to do something for them, I do it. He has taught me that if I do not come through on my word, those people will have a hard time believing me next time I say something.
I also look up to my mom because of what she has been through. She has taught me how to have strength when times get tough and too never back down from a challenge. When her mom died (my Grandma), she taught me a very important lesson. She taught me that just because you are going through a hard time does not give you an excuse to quit what you have already started. It also does not give you an excuse to get into trouble.
The other person I look up too is my big brother. He has always been there for me. When I was down, he was always there to help me up. Now that he is gone, I look up to him even more. He is setting a tremendous example for me. He enlisted in the Air Force and is now in his tech school. He is doing so well, I can only hope to do as good as him. Another reason I look up to him is I would have never signed my name on the dotted line for the Air Force had it never been for him. Him enlisting is what gave me the idea to pursue the same thing.
