The person who has had the most influence in my life
A person who has a leadership has influenced every one in this world. Most of the time it is someone very close, such as a grandfather, mother, father, mother, brother, sister, but sometimes it is a person who does not related to your family, for example a Pastor in your community, a neighbor, a professor or a writer. As far as I am concerned, three persons have influenced my whole life since my childhood. They are my mother, which I love and respect her courage, my father who is always on work till he is advanced in age and my elder brother. Believe it or not, the person who has had the most influence in my life is my elder brother Ricardo. My brother and I grew up together and went at the same schools. In spite of there is not a significant difference of age between him and me, he is my model, and so his life has always influenced mine. When we were kids, my brother and I were clothing the same way; people always thought that we were twins. In my view, riding a bicycle it is not something difficult, however I started to learn to ride bicycle when I saw him on a bicycle because I was scared to fall down on bicycle. I remember when we were in high school; he has always warned me about the courses, which required more efforts than other one. In fact, I tried follow his warning because I wanted to do my best and excelled where he failed. It was not an easy work, but most of the time my grade were better than his. Every thing he tried to do or to learn I tried them also. One of the biggest events in my life, when I received Jesus Christ in my life as my savior in October 2, 1994, was as well influenced by his manner to serve God and obey his commands. In order to improve his English when he decided later to go to an Institute, three months later I registered in this institute for the same reason. I remember when I was in my last year in high school and wanted to go to university. At this moment he was freshman at the State University of Haiti, once again he helped me to do the good choice and helped me to prepare the test in order to have the admission. My elder brother cares about me; he always wanted either or not if I find a job, in orders to help me find one. He is like a father for me and he is very proud of me. Despite of he has influenced my life, there some of choices he did that do not fit me, so that the way it is; I have my own personality. On the whole, among the persons surround me like my father, my mother, my elder brother was the person who the life has had the most influence on mine.
