Unforgettable Moment
Today I will be writing a narrative essay about unforgettable moment of my life.And that moment is when my uncle texted me on facebook and says “RIP to dad” I thought he was talking about his dad, so I called my husband and the minute he said “ Hun do not cry” I knew it. It was my dad that passed way. My father was the most caring, loving father that anybody could ask for. When I was six years old I went to my dad and said “ Daddy I want to go to school “ but the school that i want to go was a private school and my dad could not afford it. So at that moment he did not tell me no but he took me to the school and they said i was to young.

My cousin mother came to my father , she told him that her daughter and I fight and that i was the one who start the fight. I was next door listening to them. After she finished talking to my father said “ We are not here to talking about who start it the fight it 's about time to educate them that fight is not okay”. After the lady left my dad gave me the best advice ever until now I did not forget. HE said “ do you want people to treat you nice, you gotta treat others with respect”. From that day one I have learned that he was right. There is no way you can get what you want and treat people with disrespect. You got to give the respect to earn

    Waking up every morning wishing for a good morning kiss from my father just like the novelas on T.V was everything I always wanted. I was only six years old and had grown up not knowing who my father was. Unlike other kids at my school who always talked about their father playing with them, I was not able to talk about my dad. Celebrating birthdays and wishing my father was there to sing or even blow the candle with me was just a fantasy in my mind. I was young girl growing up a bit bitter because I thought life was not how a little girl would imagine.…

    Something in me has always known that I was not typical. In this generation, the typical person would graduate high school and then go on to pursue a two to four year college degree. Up until a few months ago, that was what I thought I was going to do. I thought that I was going to go to a private college somewhere, major in law, come out to be a defense attorney, and spend my days and nights hauled up in a courtroom somewhere. I believed that that was going to be my reality not because I wanted it to be but because I thought it had to be.…

    Spring Break 2014… Helmand Province Afghanistan. A heat comparable to the feeling of opening a hot oven, blisters two Marines as they talk to pass time during their patrol. “Yo Webb, what are you doing when you get out of this shithole country and ‘EAS’ (end of active service)?” asked one, “Well, gonna use my GI Bill, live that college life and make something better of myself…” replied the other Marine as an explosion goes off interrupting them. What is free is not free, someone out there, somewhere, fought for it one way or another.…

    My personal Michigan hero is my father. For this essay I chose my father because all my life I have looked up to him, even when I was too young to realize it, because my dad has guided me through life, teaching me valuable life lessons and will always be there for me and my family. My dad has changed so much in his life for my brother and I, spent hours for a day for years raising us to be the people we are today and I could never repay that. At a young age my father’s parents divorced, and he did not see his real father often because he was in the Coast Guard. He then vowed at a young age, and then to his future wife(my mother) that he would never divorce and do that if he had children.…

    It was summer, I think 2013? The summer before I started 10th grade. I believe it was around August when this entire thing happened. My “to-do list” for the rest of the day was to just go to the library, return the books, and come home before dark. Simple really, especially since the library was of walking distance.…

    Growing up in a home where I was very sheltered from the outside world made me naive and although it protected my innocence, it hid the true colors of the world from me. Spending time with my dad allowed me to be open to a different way of life, it showed me that not everyone can always have what they want. He showed me what living in poverty was truly like, and taught me many great lessons about what the real world was like. I got to see firsthand what it was like to struggle and have the fear of not having enough money to get by. I have witnessed some things I will never forget, I realize that life does not always play out in the best of ways, but it 's what makes everyone unique.…
