The person I admire the most was my grandmother.  Of course she is no longer living, but she had the most admirable qualities of anyone I have known.  I wish to be like her someday. 

She was a very fair person.  She had 4 children and a bagillion and a half grandkids and great grandkids.  We were all treated equal.   At Christmas time, we all got the same gifts.   There was no favoritism or behavior of such.

She was a very honest person.  You asked her what she thought and she told you. 

She never made you feel as if you were less of a person even if she disagreed with you.  She let you have your own thoughts and feelings, but loved you the same no matter what.

She included everyone.  She always had an extra plate at meal times for a stranger or an extra friend.   She always had a gift for an unexpected guest at Christmas time. 

She was kind and generous, honest and fair. 

I would like to think that I have some of those qualities, but I will always strive to be just like her.
