Male Female

Well, right now I'd like to describe a person I know who I admire. To be honest, I know a lot of them, for example my dad, my sisters, and my friends, but in this case I'm going to talk about my mother. Because, you know, she's a true inspiration and also she inspires everyone around her. You know, her name is actually Bagu-Dagu and she is 43, and that's why she knows the right thing and also the right time to support me, and that's why I can say she has a rather sharp mind. And whenever I face challenges related to my studies and also in my life, she was the only person I keep coming back for advice and guidance. And as I mentioned before, she is extremely true inspiration and my guiding light. And I remember one situation clearly that hardly had I decided to learn English when I faced challenges related to that language. And on that particular situation, I didn't know what to do. But thanks to my mother's motivation and encouragement, I didn't give up, but I worked in a harder way, like more seriously, for example, attending English courses at educational centers or using AI tools to improve my English level. As a consequence, right now I'm a kind of person whose English is good and also can communicate with foreign people. And apart from that, my mother is a kind of person who is likeable and also has a compulsion soul, and that's why whenever a person talks to her in real life, that person will definitely laugh with her. And I can say my mother has always a positive smile on her face and leaves a positive giving back to everyone because she sees the right side of everything in real life and even when communicating by message.
