The person I admire is my grandfather. He is 83 now. I admire him because he acts as an up-to-date person. He stays informed of all current events in the world, he uses Internet and read books a lot. My grandfather did many good and important things for our family. There are many things I can be thankful for. He went through the Second World War and had several injuries. He survived the times of real famine and poverty. Growing up in a family of 15 children, he had to share one coat and one pair of shoes with his siblings. The same can be said about food. He had to share his only piece of bread or candy with a great number of starving brothers and sisters. However, they survived and they learned to appreciate every little thing in this world. It’s not easy to find somebody you can admire. People today write beautiful songs, books, invent new machines, go to the moon. I am proud of people who achieved all the goals.
