The Person I Admire

Sometimes people come into your life and you know they are to be there to teach you a lesson or to help you understand who you are. The people who you meet affect your life and your success and downfalls. They help to create who you become. On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and asked us to meet someone we didn't know. I saw a wrinkled little old lady smiling at us. Her smile lit up her whole being. She said: "Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I'm 87 years old. I've always dreamed of college education and now I'm getting it." We became friends. Every day for the next several months we left the class together and talked nonstop. She shared her wisdom and experience with me. At the end of the year Rose gave her graduation speech. "We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets of staying young, being happy and achieving success. You are to laugh and find humour every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dream you die. There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anyone can grow older. The idea is to grow up by finding a chance in change." All the students liked Rose. She taught us by her example that it is never too late to be all you can possibly be. We make a living by what we get. We make a Life by what we give.
