You know, if I was asked this question at 5, I would name the name of some hero from the cartoons; at the age of 8 I would give the name of my primary school teacher; at age 10I would name the name of some male character, whether it's in reality or from a movie. Now, at the age of 13, I can confidently say that I admire my mother!
She does not possess either superpower or magic, she does not have medals and cups or world-wide fame.

And I now list her positive qualities not only in relation to me, but also in relation to all the people around her.
