My Mentor by Kennedy

My Mentor by Kennedy - January 2025 Scholarship Essay

There has been a person in my life since my first breaths on this earth. Every since I got to know this person, I have strived to be like them every single day. My mentor has always been my dad, he has shown me all of the things that a child deserves. He shows me everyday how important it is to work hard and how well that working hard pays off. My dad has been one of my bestest friends growing up on a farm. From helping him feed cows to him showing me the great deals in life has made me such a better person. He is such a selfless person and helps anybody whenever they need it, he never holds grudges and most of all he is such a great person. My dad has worked so hard to give my sister's and I a life that he never got to have, he gives us all of our needs and most of our wants. I wouldn't be able to be today where I am in life without him and he shown my sister's the same things that he has shown me. Trusting in God and working hard are two very important values in my life. My dad has shown me that trusting in God has been great for him because you don't know your plan, only God does and no matter how hard you want to think you do, you don't.
