The man who inspires me is my grandfather on my dad’s side. He was a lawyer in the Philippines. He inspires me because me because he acheived something many would wish they could acheive. He finished his schooling and was educated. He was well disciplined and was well respected. I learned in school that people who get an education are people who have the potential to run a country. I saw this as something to strive for, getting an education, I mean. I want to finish school as he did. I want my grandchildren to look up to their grandparents and say “Yeah, my grandparents are awesome!!” or something, right? I hope they carry on the tradition of being somebody who seeks greatness. The possibility was there, I realized.

I think that, to be inspirational, is to make others want to follow their dreams. You would think similarly to the person you admire, knowing that they want nothing but the best for you.

I don’t know much about my grandfather.But what I do know is that, I won’t dissapoint him.
