The one person I admire the most is my mother, Keshara Sotana. She is a very successful hard working high school teacher in the government sector. She is working hard, doing her best, never giving up. And a gentle person who always tries to help others more than her family. She always supported her children like me in each and every situation. Like from my childhood I was not good at education and studying in school. So my teacher always angry on me and asked my mother that I am not working hard and I am not studying well. So my mother teach me many things and said me one thing that, I know you are doing wrong, you need to work hard, become successful officer. And you should never forget that you can achieve something in one day. So work hard and never give up on your goals. So because of her advice, now I am a successful police officer in my district. Now I am a DCO post. So because of her teachings, also my siblings are now successful in their own dreams. So her dedication towards his family and her spirit of never giving up provided us a strong support that no one else provided us. My father was died when I was in 10th class.
