My Influence, My Guidance, My Mom

As time goes by, I think upon all the times my mother has guided me, whether it be about school, relationships, or life, and how much that has influenced the way I act. The way she acts also pushes these teachings, because my mother practices what she preaches. She is the hardest worker; she always gets what she needs to be done accomplished. She never leaves a project unfinished, whether that project be at work or home. Every day, her character shines through; she never raises her voice, she has the nicest disposition, and she always has a smile on her face. Even more impressive, her job sometimes invovles dealing with the nastiest of all people at Ridge Medical Center, which can be especially stressful at times.
My mother is always there to guide me and give me advice. I cannot possibly count, or fathom, how often I have gone to her for advice, just wondering what to do. Although the advice she gives me is primarily how to deal with a situation, I know I can go to her for anything, and she always has time for me, no matter what is going on or what she is doing. I aspire to one day be as selfless as my mother; she is my hero.
