She has always been a source of inspiration and strength in my life.

She played a significant role in my upbringing and taught me important life values.

Her stories and experiences have shaped my perspective on life.

I remember her telling captivating stories about her youth while we sat in her cozy kitchen.

She was always cooking, and the smell of her homemade curry filled the house.

Her laugh was infectious, and she had a unique ability to make everyone around her feel special.

During her childhood, she lived through significant historical events, including the Great Depression.

She met my grandfather during 88 Uprising, and their love story was one for the ages.

Over the years, she raised four children while working tirelessly to support the family.

Meanwhile, she pursued her passion for education, eventually earning her degree later in life.

During her retirement, she dedicated her time to volunteering in the community and traveling.

Now he doesn't have my life. Because he was appearing when he was 98. But I thought he was staying with me and he went to visit. During the holiday, We went to the monastery and cleaned. He always talks about his life and he met my grandma. Grandad was disciplined and taught Buddhism. Now I know all of the Budda about. I was not bored with him because he told me about his experience and his childhood . And then he made fun of me. 

Grandad was an Arakan native and a traditional healer.He had a traditional medicine certificate. It is a certificate recognized by the government. He isn’t an English doctor. He went around the Myanmar. And he was meeting my grandma when he came to treat. After that they were married and borned three daughters. They lived in my grandma's hometown. Sometimes they visited the Grandad's hometown. Grandad stayed a long time with grandchildren. He stopped treatment when he was older. I was  their eldest daughter’s daughter. All of my grandparents, I love him. And I think Grandad always cares for me now. 

During the time I struggled with illness when I was young, she was always by my side, trying everything she could to help me recover. She provided me with most of the things I wanted and help me with my life conditions. One of the most remarkable things we share is shopping together. We both are into shopping and always have fun whenever we go shopping.

She rarely shares much about her life story with me since she is a quiet and introverted person. However, I have investigated about hers from other family members. Her life become tough when my father passed away. They had been married for over 8 years but tragically, he passed away when I was three years old. While she was encountering with this challenge, she managed to create a happy family for me and my sister. She faced with numerous difficulties over the time of having 2 kids as a single mother. She worked hard to earn money to get her own business .Meanwhile, making us to be perfect and happy with her. That's all about her some key life events that I know. To reflect on my mother's journey, She's a strong and independent mother who is willing to provide and fulfill her daughters' wish and goals.

ps. Romanticism in poetry does not refer to "love" or "romantic". Instead, it emphasizes the value of individual thoughts, feelings, and imagination. It is a belief system that appreciates the beauty of nature rather than inanimate objects.

     In December 1819, before the onset of a second winter, Thomas Lincoln married Sarah Bush Johnston, who moved from Kentucky to Indiana to make a family with Thomas Lincoln. A widow with two girls and one boy of her own, she treated both sets of children as if she had borne them all, but she became especially fond of Abraham. Afterwards, Abraham referred to his stepmother as his “angel mother”.

     Abraham’s childhood education was sporadic and limited to a few brief periods of schooling, for a total of fewer than 12 months in aggregate by age 15. He disliked the hard labor associated with his farm life. Nonetheless, he remained an avid reader and retained a lifelong interest in learning. He used to trudge for miles to borrow a book. However, he borrowed books from neighbors and from libraries, read voraciously including the Bible, Aesop’s fables, “Pilgrim’s progress ” by John Bunyan, “Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe and The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. His stepmother, Sarah Bush Johnston encouraged his love of reading and learning. Then Lincoln keeps learning to write by himself. Lincoln often read by the light of the fireplace after a long day of physical labor. He also practiced writing by using any available material, including the back of a shovel, where he would write with a piece of charcoal. Anyway, his early experiences shaped his character, work ethic and moral compass, contributing significantly to his achievements as a lawyer, politician and ultimately the 16th president of the United States in 1861.

      So, let’s talk about my interest and why this person to me. Honestly, I have lots of inspiring people in my life, especially my Dad. Abraham Lincoln is one of my inspirations for making a decision or how to respond about a mistake or someone’s mistake which is totally effective on him. He applied his sympathy and empathy while he faced a problem or while he made a decision. That is why he stands in second place as the best president of the United States. He is master at leadership ability, his dedication to keeping the United States together and for pursuing equal justice for all. 

     Let me describe some of his unforgettable speeches, decisions and quotations that I have read from “How to win friends & influence people”. It was 1863, during the civil war, Lincoln put a new general at the head of the army of the Potomac, and each one in turn McClellan, Pope, Burnside, Hooker, Mead-blundered tragically and drove Lincoln to pacing the floor in despair. Half the nation savagely condemned these incompetent generals, but Lincoln, with malice toward none, with charity for all, held his peace. One of his favorite quotations was “Jude not, that ye be not judged”. And when Mrs: Lincoln and other people spoke harshly of the southern people, Lincoln replied, “Don’t criticize them, they are just what we would be under similar circumstances”.

      Another illustration: The battle of Gettysburg was fought over the first three days of July 1863. During the night of July 4, Lee began to retreat southward while storm clouds deluged the country with rain. When Lee reached the Potomac with his defeated army, he found a swollen, impassable river in front of him, and a victorious Union Army behind him. Lee was in a trap. He couldn't escape. Lincoln saw that. Here was a golden, heaven-sent opportunity, the opportunity to capture Lee's army and end the war immediately. So, with a high hope, Lincoln ordered Meade not to call a council of war but to attack Lee immediately.

     But General Meade did the very opposite of what he was told to do. After that the water receded and Lee escaped over the Potomac with his forces. So, Lincoln was furious. In bitter disappointment, Lincoln wrote to Meade this letter..

My dear General,

I do not believe you appreciate the magnitude of the misfortune involved in Lee's escape. He was within our easy grasp, and to have closed upon him would, in connection with our other late successes, have ended the war. As it is, the war will be prolonged indefinitely. If you could not safely attack Lee last Monday, how can you possibly do so south of the river, when you can take with you very few-no more than two-thirds of the force you then had in hand? It would be unreasonable to expect and I do not expect that you can now affect much. Your golden opportunity is gone, and I am distressed immeasurably because of it”. 

        However, Lincoln didn’t send this letter to general Meade. It was found among his papers after his death. He was too furious about what Meade did but, I guess because of his sympathy and empathy, he decided not to send that letter. General Meade is the one who was actually faced with the battle in prison and Lincoln is only sitting in White House and order Meade to attack, he can’t see all of the crisis and problems that Meade and his army faced.

      After I read about Abraham Lincoln’s biography, I got a habit of thinking from other people’s side, have to be good at sympathy and empathy, and how to make a good decision when faced with problems. When we have a problem, we should ask ourselves “ How would Lincoln handle this problem if he had it?”

Every morning when I was a child,we usually wake up early together and walk to the nearest pagoda to pray for the Buddha.In return he bought and treated us the delicious breakfast in the bazaar.During I was trying for my Grade-10 (2021),I always lately back home from Tution.But he always wait me in front of our home over these times ,and then I arrived he close our main door and used to hit the bed.When I pass with four flying colours,his tears fell down from his eyes and look at me with joyful and ecstatic face.This time was my unforgettable time.

And also my grandad had been a good soldier for the country from around 1930 until 1990,he worked as a soldier on Myanmar Army.And so he was strict and also upbringing us.Sometimes he used to tell about his life story while he was working on there.His past life stories and experiences also shaped my outlook on life.While I feel boring,I always sit near the grandad’s seat.At that time he noticed me and then he started telling me about his fascinating and captivating stories about his experiences and sometimes he used to tell lots of adventures.During he telling these stories I feel happy and used to listen carefully and enthusiastically.But now he is pensioner and got retirement pensions.While he take out money from bank he used to pay us pocket money.

But now he doesn’t have my life and my side anymore.And I never heard his stories anymore.Because he quite left me three months ago.And I even couldn’t come back home and didn’t see his last time and didn’t get a chance to say good-bye and also didn’t buy some goodies that he like because I had to take an exam.From this time until now I usually cry while I thinking about him.I think he was not only a brave and loyal above the country but also a good father for his children and best grandad for his grandchildren.And he will always be by my side and take care of me from the heaven.

From an early age, he developed an interest in acting. Then, he tried to start his career. In 1993, he received the first academy award nomination with “What's eating Gilbert Grape”. 

In 1997, with the release of “Titanic”, he got a massive success. During that period, most of the girls adored Leonardo. Now, he has been acting for 35 years and he is still showing his love in the film industry by acting in films. 

Beyond acting, he founded the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation in 1998. He mainly focuses on global conservation. If you check his IG account, you will see his effort. 

As Leonardo has made a positive impact in the world and he could inspire me, he becomes important to me. His movies are part of my life. After watching “Basketball Diaries” acted by Leonardo, I learned that drug addiction is dangerous for our life. It's important to get support from our family or friends. Meanwhile, the movie “Titanic” taught me that life is unpredictable. It also showed me what true love is.

I remember him more than other actors because he is not only good at acting but also makes action for our earth. I believe celebrities should pay attention to our earth. So, their fans will also be more interested than they were. I also thank him for his effort and awareness. 

Since watching “Titanic”, he has become the best actor in the world for me and I am always proud of his achievements. 

William Shakespeare is thought to have been born on 23rd April 1564. His date of birth is exactly unknown, but he was baptised on 26th April. At that time, children were often baptised three days after their birth. That is why William's date of birth was regarded on 23rd April.

William was a third child of John and Mary Shakespeare. He was from a family of eight. He had two older sisters and three younger brothers. His father was John Shakespeare, a successful merchant who also held official position as an alderman and His mother, Mary Arden was a local-landed heiress who came from a wealthy family.

Although his education was not exactly recorded, it is thought he went to school at King's New School in Stratford which only boys could attend at that school. After his education, he got married with Anne Hathaway on 28th November 1582. He was only 18 when he got married . Meanwhile, his spouse was 26 years old. His wife gave birth his firat daughter, Susanna and she baptised on 26th May 1583. Two years later, the twins, son Hamnet and daughter Judith were born. Sadly, his son Hamnet died at the age of 11.

Nobody can say what William's family was doing from the birth of the twins until he moved to London. Those years are refered to as "the Lost Years".

During his time in London, he wrote two long poems. He was also a founding member of The Lord Chamberlain's Men, an entertainment company. His extant works include 39 plays, 154 sonnets, 3 long poems and so on. He created the most famous tragedies like Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet and many others comedies and romances. Because of Shakespeare, we have over three hundred words and well known phrass like barefaced, fair_play, watchdog etc... in English language, which he invented.

William Shakespeare was died on 23rd April 1616 on his 52nd birthday. His body was buried in the Holy Trinity churchyard in Stratford.

office in London. After four years there, when his relative died,he was left some money.Fleming used it to study medicine at St.Mary’s Hospital.

When he became a doctor.Fleming stayed on at St.Mary’s Hospital to study bacteria.Bacteria make us ill. And the bacteria and the white cells are fight .In our body, if the white cells lose the fight , then a person becomes seriously ill and may even die.

Doctors knew about this,and they used antiseptics to kill the bacteria but unfortunately the antiseptics also killed the bacteria and the white cells. At the time,Fleming was working hard to discover something which would kill the only the bacteria but not the white cells.

One day in his laboratory at St.Mary’s Flaming was examining microbes on a glass plate under his microscope and he noticed that some of them had been killed.And he found that, it only killed the bacteria. And he named that “Penicillin “.

He worked on hard until he succeeded in producing penicillin as we know it today. For this work, he was given the title of “sir “ .And today, he is remembered as the world famous medical scientist who discovered penicillin, the antibiotic which is used all over the world to save countless numbers of lives.

In 1998, he passed the Grade 11 exam with 5D this is the biggest problem and opportunity for him, I said that biggest problem because his family is very poor and they cannot effort to attend Medical university. Although they tried to earn money, he had taught and earned money for him, his mother was worked in the shop and his father was government employee.But their salary didn’t cover for his fees.

In 1999, they transferred to Yangon and he started attend the university.The university and his house are so far so he always went by train .If he spend money for train he didn’t eat lunch.After attended, his mother was working so he helped his mother and then he prepared for teach Grade 10 student girl, after 7years this girl become my anty.Then he went home and he started study his subjects this is the normal day for him but he never disappointed his life.

However, after 6 years he had graduated and he became a doctor .One year later, he married.And then they transferred little town.

My uncle and anty overcame everything together.A year after transferred they had a baby. Now they get the happy family.Sometime, I visit their home when I miss my cousin sister.His story is always encourage for me when I want to have my goal. How do you think I can do it?

From my childhood until now, my mother has always been there, providing me with emotional and physical support. During our country's political instability, she take care and protect a lot her family as much as she can. She is very incredible person at the moment that we never imagined her. Over three years later, I have realized that her unwavering spirit is the cornerstone of our family’s resilience.

Her life was filled with acts of kindness and generosity. From a young age until now, she has supported her relatives and community. She often donated to the local monastery every month. Meanwhile, she never missing an opportunity to help those in need. These acts of kindness were not isolated but part of her daily routine.

My mother's life is a full of struggle, power of resilience, hard work and unwavering support for her family, relatives and neighborhood. Her legacy of strength and compassion is the one that I survive alone in any situation of my own life.

Her scent, her voice and her embrace is what I remember most about her. I can't forget the way her humming while she was making breakfast for us and the way she let out soft giggle when dad had made some joke. One day when i felt down, i said her that i wanted to run away as i was tired of everything. In my surprise, She said nothing to me but she tightly hugged me between her arms and murmured that ' I love you'. There is no word that I could express how happy i was when that time and i couldn't help but cry almost all night as I was very grateful for having her and I couldn't dare to think about my life without her.

Throught out her life, she took all the responsibilities of her family. She showed her love to us by not only words but also work. She was the person who gave to her family but never took anything from us. She met my dad in 1988 and they got married in 1990. She raised four children, two sons and two daughters. She almost died when she gave birth to my brother who is four years older than me. She supported finance, love and warmth to her family until the day that she left from all her beloved people forever. That day is on March 1, 2023.

When we have free time, she always talk about her childhood. I'll never forget this because she always talk about this. When she was a kid, she lived in Myanmar and China border in Kachin State. When she was about ten years old, she ran from the border because of the chinese solders. At that time China have some kind of political have happened because of Mao Zedong. So she leaved her parents and lived in her uncle house in Myitkyina. Out of that time she never met her parents again. I'm really felt sorry about this when I heard this from her.

So generally my grandmom life was many difficulities to grow up but she never give up her life. Althought she didn't reach middle school, she raised her 10 childern graduated. That kind of attitude was the things that most of the people didn't have. I really impressed about my grandmom life and I thought if I was her what would I do and what would I become.

My grandfather was born and raised in Yangon during a time when education was considered as a luxury that only few could afford. But he excelled academically and received a full scholarship to Harvard University, proving his hard work. At Harvard, he not only excelled but also proved himself as an excellent student, earning the respect and admiration of both his colleagues and professors.

My grandfather's life was full of excellent education. After finishing his study, he returned to Burma, driven by a sense of duty to serve his country. He applied his knowledge and skills to various kinds of fields, making significant improvements that had a long-term impact on the community.

Although he is no longer with us, stories about his accomplishments and goals have been carried on through my family's generations. Every story about him teaches me a valuable lesson for my own life. He has set a high standard, and I wish to dedicate myself to his memory by expressing the goals he set. Despite the fact that we never met, my grandfather remains an important person of inspiration and motivation for me.

In the morning , we walk together and do some exercises. When he want to play golf , we always play together. In my childhood, he always buy me what ever I want . When I become older, he protects me and he still supports me. When I had a problem, I told him and he gave me an advice. He was not only my father but also like my friend. In the weekend, we always hang out and eat together. He was a very patient person ,when I did my nails he always wait for me.

He was also a religious person, he always says a prayers and meditate everyday. He was a helpful person and he knows how to communicate with other people. So he had many true friends.

In 3th August 2023, he was passed away because of the heart attack. I felt really sad and I really missed him . He was the best person in the world but he left me . If I have a chance I want to meet him again.

        In his early twenties, he had moved to the city in search of better opportunities. He had taken up various jobs before finding his passion . He had met my grandmother at a community dance, and they had quickly fallen in love. They married in 1955 and settled in a modest home that he had built with his own hands.After 2years, they was born my father.

       One summer, when I was twelve, I had spent two weeks with my grandparents. It was during this time that I had learned some of the most valuable lessons of my life. Every morning, my grandfather and I had breakfast together before heading out to his workshop. He had shown me how to use various tools, patiently guiding my hands and explaining the purpose of each one.

       Throughout my life, my grandfather's teachings have remained with me. He had taught me the importance of patience and the joy of creating something with your own hands. Whenever I faced challenges, I remembered his calm mind and wise words, finding strength in his example.

         He was a pillar of strength, a source of wisdom, and a loving grandfather. His legacy lives on in the hearts of all who knew him, and his influence continues to guide me every day. Though he passed away years ago, his spirit remains alive in the lessons he taught and the love he shared.
