My Canterbury Bells to My Special One

My special one is my mentor. My mentor is like my older sibling, whom I've never had.

He is my Google and my Siri, my 911 when I need help. He helped me become an extrovert, rather than an Introvert.

Like a flower that sprouts. From the beginning, he was the one to encourage me by giving me a response that I hoped to hear from someone else.  

He inspires me to pursue my dreams just like he is doing. His hard work is paying off with his 3rd year at med school. He encourages

me to apply to the colleges I think I "won't get accepted into" because he knows I can do it. Whenever I need an answer, he answers it just like Google

and siri do. When I need an opinion, he is there to give it to me. My Canterbury Bells (gratitude) go to him because, I've learned to trust and believe in

myself. When I believed that I would do bad in the smallest thing, he always told me the opposite. From the beginning he was there to help me grow

from the shy and quiet person I was, to a more outgoing person. He is my advisor in instances like filling out the college applications and FAFSA.  He is

the older sibling I never got to look up to in my family. He has helped me become a more positive and brighter me. When I felt the world collapsing on

me, he was Superman. He is special to me because he was my first mentor whom I will never forget. He has done so much for me, that everyday I

make sure I help those who come to me for advice or help. I have became interested in giving back to my community because I realized the importance

of being able to reach out to those who need a mentor just like I needed one. His motivation, motivated me to motivate others and make sure that they

pursue their dreams by staying in school and never giving up because the only person or thing that can stop them, is themselves.
