The person who really inspires my life is my dear father

 

My father was born in the year 1945 in a remote village in Haiphong province, in the north of Vietnam.  He married in 1970. He has three sons and one daughter. I am the second son and born in 1974. His main job is a farmer: cultivating rice and raising pig, chicken.

Why my father has inspired my life? There are a number of reasons as follows:

Firstly, I am luckily present on earth because he is my father. He gave me life that is the most important and valuable thing I have. It means “no father, no son”.

Secondly, because my family has been living in a remote and poor area, the schools and teachers are very limited. He taught me and my brothers from the beginning, for example reading, writing as well as simple math during our childhood. In addition, he gave how to do the farming work, one of his most loved things, such as rice cultivating, raising buffalos, pigs and chickens. That is the first learnt lesson I never forget in my life.

Thirdly, He is a disciplined person because he served in the army from 1965 to 1969. Therefore the mandatory requirements have affected his character. His character and his teaching help me a lot for my current management’s work.

Finally, He is a hard working person and contributed his whole life for his family.  Now, everything I have, such as the better education and the high in come job, the majority parts he brought to us. He has sacrificed for his children and his family.

Thank you very much dear Dad. Your life, your responsibility and your love for the family have truly inspired me in the path of my life.
