Someone or Something I Admire
The real reason I admire him so much, however, is that
he has not stopped doing things in our house. In spite of his
disability, he walks the same as any other person does; he
drives his car and fixes everything in our house almost as
well as he did in the past, with my help though. We now do
everything that anybody in the world can imagine. I also
admire him because when I see him I see his high self-
esteem. That helps me to forge ahead with all my goals in
life because if he did not stop achieving his goals why
should I? I believe he is the light that illuminates my way
every day.

I Love Music
Music is something that I admire. I cannot go a day
without listening to music. I listen to music when I am sad
or happy. Music is a part of my life. I listen to fast music
when I am glad and when I want to dance; but I like slow
songs more. When I am happy I enjoy the music, when I
feel sad I understand the lyrics. I can show my feelings with
music. Music is one of the best things to relax my mind. I
do not know how my life would be without music. I might
go crazy without music. My life is lighter with music. When
I listen to music I feel like I am far away from my problems
and I start to live in my dreams. If I am in a bad mood I feel
better after listening to music. I can listen to music all day. I
imagine the story of the song while listening to it. I think
the singers share their feelings with us. I listen to music
every day, that is why my headphones are always broken. I
will listen to music until my last breath. Right now I am
trying to listen to more English songs because it will help
me learn more English.
