Everest

I chose to do my blog assignment today on the Everest movie we watched inspired by eric, the blind man who reached the highest point of the earth being blind, and able. His crew, and he worked as a team to get the top and accomplish what they set out to do. i think this story is over critized because people look past the fact that its an amazing defeat for a blind man to do something most perfectly able sight seeing men or women wouldnt even dare to. how many obstacles he must have had to overcome and the people who would be representing, he went for it anyway. to me that just shows his dedication, heart, and courage. To me, eric is a brave, daring, bold man who is more than able to do anything a "normal" person can. god gave him his blindness for a reason and i have respect for him for going out and fufilling his destiny and doing what god planned and intended for him.

my dad is my inspiration <3


today our assignment was to blog about the one person that comes to mind when explaining who inspires us at this point in our life. my dad is the strongest person i know, physically, mentally, and spiritually. He's the only person i know whose human and still hasn't let me down. He's the best role model and in my eyes can do anything. He never makes me feel like i'm not good enough to do anything, or for anyone. He teaches all of his kids about faith and how it's so important in our lives. he doesn't only talk it he lives it too. My dad's been through more than anyone should have had to live through. Yet GOD has used that to make him a good person. An amazing man who loves his family and everyone else like his own brother or sister. Whenever there's a squabble or conflict between anyone he always has the perfect words to make it better and really settle it. I never walk away from a situation i come to him with uneasy or unsettled. He knows me better than anyone and pretty much reads me like an open book. I love him more than anyone could love a person. He's my rock next to God and always will be. I never want to see him hurt by anyone or anything. He deserves the happiness that only his faith can bring him and im so happy he has that. My dad inspires me to be better. just better in general, and inspires me in a way that is so amazing. like i can do anything just because i have him in me and he raised me to be a winner. to be strong and to believe. I'm very loyal to my dad and the day I fail him is the day i die inside. He's the most hardoworking man, and is the best at his job. I LOVE YOU DAD !
