The person that is my role model is my father. One of the reasons I chose him, is that he has a lot in his life that I can write about. My dad holds a lot of traits, but it would take hours to name them all so I'll just name a few of them.
My dad is reliable, trustworthy, compassionate, sympathetic, respectful, independent, hard-working, and loyal. He is also very, very thoughtful. My dad is the kind of person that likes to spend time with his family whenever he gets the chance. He loves to be funny and make us laugh.
My dad teaches us a lot of things, but we teach him things too, but on very rare occasions, though! Even when we feel sad or mad, he is still cool to have around.
My dad does get mad at my brother and I sometimes, but he isn't the type to hold a grudge. Sure, he still has to go to work, and we all miss him a lot when he has to go on business trips, but we always get through it.
I wish there were more people like my dad, but the world isn't perfect, you know!
