Explanation:

 In my life there have been many people and things that have been huge influences on me. Soccer is one thing that has been a big thing I my life. I have played soccer for almost twelve years, so it has taken up most of my life. Even though soccer is such a big deal to me, there is one thing that has influenced me much more then soccer or anything else. That would be my grandma. She is one of those people that have made such a big impression on my life. About six years ago my grandma had a stroke. That was just the start of her downfall. After some doctors and hospital visits she got better, and even started living on her own again. She never gave up and always wanted to help herself and not have other people to depend on. About a year later my grandma had another stroke, this time it messed up her brain really badly. She didn't know where she was, who I or anyone else was, or anything that was going on at all. After those two strokes she was put into a nursing home, because there was no other option. My mom being the only one left in her family took things very hard. She tried her best to go visit my grandma everyday. For the first two years she would go and feed her lunch. My grandma ended up being in the nursing home for four years until she past away in June. While in the nursing home it was obvious that the nurses didn't treat my grandma right. She would always have bruises and cuts that anyone would know that she couldn't have done them to herself being in a wheelchair. My grandma has changed my life in a major way. She inspired my life, because my grandma loved me so much, more then anyone else, I thin of her often. She inspires me to make good choices, because I think of what would make her happy and proud of me. I will never forget her or how much we meant to each other. I now have a special play in my heart for elderly people

Mahatma Gandhi's Life Inspires Me To…

Mahatma Gandhi's life inspires me to be a great human being. The life of Mahatma Gandhi has been an inspiration not only for Indians, but for people from all other countries as well. He was an epitome of many virtues, self-less actions, and peace-spreading thoughts. No wonder he is called Mahatma (The Great Soul) by the entire world. People are born; people die. But some people after they are gone leave behind them a trail of light that illumines the path for the striving followers. Longfellow has praised such people in his poem, 'A Psalm of Life'. He says,  

" And, departing, leave behind us  

Footprints on the sands of time;"  

The above written lines aptly describe the sublimity of Mahatma Gandhi’s life. Mahatma Gandhi was a great soul whose philosophy and ideology influenced the world considerably. He practiced non-violence and tried to resist all opposition spiritually. He believed in overcoming fear, dependence on others through self-reliance and self- industry. He successfully resisted the British injustice, aggression, oppression using his non-violence and satayagreh. Ultimately he succeeded in winning Independence from the British. His philosophy and ideology were adopted by many great leaders of the world. Leo Tolstoy, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, etc, successfully adopted and practiced his teachings. The world acknowledges his contributions to mankind even in modern times.  

Mahatma Gandhi's ideology is universal which is relevant for all times. People know very little about his subtly powerful and pragmatic ideology. If his ideology were not effective, the world would not have accorded him the title of Mahatma. His ideology is admired throughout the world for its universal and spiritual appeal. Its relevance in the contemporary turbulent times is more than it was in the past.  

If Mahatma Gandhi's most famous ideology of non-violence is practiced by each individual, state, and country in the world; conflicts, wars, violence, etc will be wiped from the face of the earth. People will live in a securer and happier world!  

Similarly, Gandhi’s ideology on vegetarianism, truthfulness, self-government, self-reliance, observing silence, cleanliness, etc, holds solutions to almost all the problems afflicting people in the modern times. If put into practice, they have the power to enable the modern man enjoy life holistically. There is inspiration in everything he did. I really want to live a great life that he lived.
