Of course Jesus, for all the obvious reasons! And also my mother. She raised 4 of us after being married to an alcoholic, and then an abusive alcoholic ( my father ). She spent most of her adult life badly stressed and worrying about my two brothers who were always with the wrong crowd, getting in trouble, and having a lot of very bad personal demons themselves. Her health had been declining for years. And just last year, she lost both of her legs, up to half thigh, within three months of each other due to diabetes. Last year was the worst year of both of our lives, and it changed our lives forever. But in the midst of it all, my Mother got saved, which was the single greatest moment of my life, because if anything would happen to her ( God forbid ), I know she would be waiting for me right along side our savior. And even though she's been through a lot, she's doing her very best to keep her spirits up. She's the bravest person I have ever known.

I admired my grandma the most, she is gone now, but her memory will live on. She was a great hostess, the best Grandma, and an honest and compassionate woman. She always had a kind word, warm bread, or a cold beer, she was prepared for any situation.....
She taught us how to love life, forgive the wrong, and take pleasure in the ordinary.
I strive to be even half the woman she was, they just don't come like that any more, so my goal is to keep that part of humanity alive by trying to continue on where my granny left off.......

I would have to say my Dad. I look up to him more than anyone else. He is an honest man which isn't common. But most of all he is a forward blunt man that always lets you know where you stand. I am very grateful that he passed that on to me. He taught me to be a very strong woman and to make sure nobody walked all over me. My mother left him when I was 8 and took me and my little brother with her. He went through alot of turmoil. He fought for us kids for 5 yrs and no matter how much money it costs he just kept paying it out and his child support too. There was time he worked two jobs and then we he got remarried she worked too to help him fight for us. He never gave up. She was a horrible wife but he put up with it for us and then she still left and took us with her. He made it through and now has a better life for it. He was a strict dad (we came to live with him when I turned 15.) but he taught us morals and respect. He is a top notch DAd, Husband, and Grandpa!!!!!!!

I'm not sure admire would be the right choice of words, but the one I put up on that pedastel would have to be my husband's foster mom. When my mother passed away, she filled her shoes, she's played grandma to all five of our children. Still considers my husband her child even though he's now in his 40's. She never says anything bad or out of line. She has the patience of a saint, enough love to fill the world and she simply beams with positive energy.

My husband..I have never seen him angry..well maybe 2 times in 9 years. He is the most composed, self controlled person ever. For example... He had over 300 DVDs categorized alphabetically on the PC and somehow the file got lost and he didn't bat an eye...considering how much time it will take him the program all of the titles back in again..I would have flipped, but not him!

My mother and grand-mother. My mum was a single mum working full time with two girls. We never usually went without things and she always made time for us even if she was exhausted. My grand-mother because she had 7 kids (one set of twins) and she helped my mum with us (when mum had to work late shift) and she instilled in us good values and she is very giving and caring to others. My grand-mother has 13 grand kids and 7 great grandies (+2 on the way). We all love nanna and would do anything for her cause she has done so much for us all.

I think that the person that I admire the most would have to be my boyfriend.
He is the sweetest person, he doesn't think about himself, and he knows how to make me smile and laugh. He is also there for me while I'm pregnant. He loves to make me laugh about what the baby will look like, and what our future will be. He's very laid back, and I'm so happy he's not a druggie, and an alcoholic like everyone else in this town I live with. He's my first boyfriend that can actually make me feel good about myself, and make me feel safe and protected.
I'm happy that your brother is a very important person too you! Having family being important to you is very sweet!! I have two brothers, and a sister. My brothers aren't close to me, but I couldn't live without my baby sister.

My mother . She passed away and I really miss her. I always remember everything she tought me. She was always there for me. We would talk on the phone like 1000 times a day. She was a beautiful person everyone loved my mom. She was sweet, kind, giving, thoughtful, sensitive to others, she always put everyone else before her. When she died I was so sad for along time. I will always miss her and admire her.

For me that would be the people who admit there mistakes and
say sorry to the person they have hurt
It takes a lot of courage to admit ur own faults and to relize that you were wrong and are ready to accept the responsiability for ur acts
