my father

I met many persons who have influence in my life. I couldn’t measure who gave me more than anyone but my father deserve to be the best. Because my father has stayed with me during whole my life, I reminded my father first. My father is the first son in our big family and he has a strong sense of responsibility. He has dreamed about perfectly happy family. In the past, he had droved a ship for make money in order to support our family. He has never forgotten our family even he had sailing in the abroad. That time, I couldn’t imagine his life in the abroad. I was so young to understand his life at that time. When I was little kid, I was just enjoyed his gifts or vacation. The period of working was approximately one year or more than one year. After finishing his job, he used to visit Korea to see his children. I still remembered what he sent many gifts from the abroad for me and my siblings. After he decided to stop the working at abroad, I was so excited to see my father every day. In other hand, he thought that his children needed father when they were young. His life worked only for his family. Sometimes, I miss my family so much even though I choose this life, in Carbondale, for my dream. After coming in the United States, I realized his saying and efforts for support my family. He has always emphasized that the love of family will be the most important value in our life. And then, I am totally agreed with his thinking about family because the family makes me to be stronger.
