My best influence

One of the best influences in my life is the person I live with; He

is my best influence.

I met him 32 or 33 years ago. The moment I met him I always

said: I want to be like him without knowing him yet. He is 20
years older than me. He works in a middle school in the
mornings his job is to help with administration and in the
afternoons he teaches English which I see that puts a lot of
enthusiasm.

Since I've been with him I've seen that he doesn't let himself be
defeated, he always has -an I can-, even if they are good or bad
things.

He always gives me good advice; he makes me see my mistakes

so that I don't make them again.

One thing that he has never been able to do with me is that I

have not wanted him to help me with English.

It was not a bad choice to have him by my side.

That's why I want to be like him. Although I haven't been able to

do it!
 Bad influence

Personally, I don't think I've met anyone who is a bad influence

on me, but I have a cousin who fell into drugs because of her
friends --well, that's what her mother says-

She was going to college but almost when she finished her
degree she decided to study French so in that class she met
three girls who instead of eating food took drugs to avoid being
hungry so she began to do the same.

Over the years she stopped studying, she went to the United
States and they say that she has not been able to get out of
drugs.
