Myself Essays - Justin Bieber, Usher, Important Of Education

Myself My name is Sheldon Bernard. I was born in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago; which is located in the Caribbean. I am the third of eight children; five boys and three girls. I did not grow up with my mother, but with my grandmother. As a child I was taught the value of life and the important of education. I was taught that one should live life to its fullest potential and do my best in everything that I do. I was also taught that in showing respect one will receive respect. I was told that honesty will take me far in life and not to envy anyone. I must learn how to love for it is the key of forgiveness. My grandmother also said that without an education I will be nothing. She encourage me to go to school and learn well, for in the future I will need it. There is an old saying ?you can lead a horse to the water but you can?t make him drink.? Did my grandmother words fell on deaf ear? Did I pay close attention to what she was saying? As I grow older, I began think back on what my grandmother said and decided to make a change in my life by educating myself for a better tomorrow. I have come to lean that there is ?no mountain high enough, no valley low enough? by Marvin Gay. Once I have put my mind to learning I will be able to be a winner.
