The Most Influential Person in My Life

As I was growing up, it has always been both my grandparents who I considered as the most influential people in my life..Not only that they're the ones who raised me and my sister up when both our parents started working abroad, they also were the ones who greatly influenced us when it came to moral values..

Now, that I'm already happily married, I consider my husband as the most influential person in my life..Not only that he kind of helped me change my childish ways and become a more mature person, he also influenced me on how I look at life itself - now as a wife..

There are so many things that changed in me..Before, I would only think for myself most of the time because I had no other responsibilities to take care of than my family, friends, and school..I had been used to a life where I don't worry too much about a lot of things, like money for instance, because I know I have my parents to handle that for me..I can but anything I wanted to, out of my own savings..I don't have to think twice if I wanted to go to a particular place with friends, because I didn't have anybody yet who, I'll have to think of their feelings first before mine..Everything for me was so easy to take care back then..But now, it's a different story..

My husband inspires me to be a lot better person than I am now..Through him, I learned to put him first before myself..I learned how to actually work and earn my own money because I didn't want him to think that I'm depending on him on everything..I had to end the old ways I used to be, because right now, I have a husband to take care for, first and foremost..Even when it comes to my studies, knowing that he has this strong faith in what I can achieve and what I can become someday, pushes me more to my limit..When I am down, his comforting words lift me back up again..His love, most of all, is the greatest reason that influences me, that no matter what I encounter in this life's journey, I know I have him who's always willing to walk beside me, ready to catch me and pick me up each time I fall..

My husband has changed me in so many good ways..But for me, it is because he believes in me that influences me the most..
