My Favorite Personality My Mother
The people in your life are like pillars. They may not be as strong, but
they always have a place to lean on when you need them most. No
matter how hard events get or what's happening around you- there is
one person that will never let go and give up no matter the cost
because of their undying love for you - this is why it means so much
more than anything else out.
My mother has always impressed me with how she tries to help
everyone. She is honest and kindhearted- this makes her an ideal
person in society today. My favorite thing about my mom is how she
possesses all of these qualities without even trying. The woman who
always greets me at the door with a warm smile and asks how I am
doing is one of my favorite people in this building.
Her character is very simple and charming. She is wise, honest and truthful. I
always admired her because of her kindness towards everyone and the way
she tries to help everyone as much as possible. She never refuses anyone
who comes to the door asking for help. She is very religious too and prays
regularly. She is a God fearing person who always teaches me to remember
God’s gifts and thank him daily by praying.
She has always motivated me in every walk of my life. She is always there,
praying for me whenever I am going for my exams. Whenever, I feel helpless
and confused about certain matters, she is always there as a guardian angel
to help me in my decisions. She has always encouraged me to be the best in
all that I do.
If I fail in anything then she is always there to help me in what I did wrong and
support me without any criticism. She is not just a mother but a best friend
too. I can talk to her for countless hours without getting bored.
I feel comfortable to share everything with her. She is my friend who always
encouraged and helped me whenever I needed a friend for moral support.
She made me who I am today. She taught me how to be selfless, humble and
caring towards others. She never bounded or restricted me from anything but
she taught me one thing that there is a fine line between right and wrong and I
must know what is right for me.
It is because of her trust and faith in me that I am a confident person today. I
never heard her of speaking ill about anyone. The way she has grown in the
past few years amazes me.
She is not just an ordinary woman. She loves to read, write and paint. She is
always eager to learn and read more. We also play games and I know she
always lets me win. She is the humblest lady I have seen in my entire life.

Dear Arif,
I hope, you are well by the grace of Almighty Allah. The day before yesterday I received
a letter from mother and came to know that you have become a chain smoker. Probably
you do not know the harmful effects of smoking. It causes serious harm to health. It also
damages our lung. A person loses his brain, morality and longevity due to smoking. It
causes many respiratory diseases. It creates cancer, bronchitis, heart diseases etc.
Smoking does not bring any good for us rather it does a lot of harms. It is said that
smoking is as bad as committing suicide. So, you should give up smoking at once to
save your valuable life. No more today. My best respect to parents and love to my
younger sister. I wish you a happy life.
Yours brother,
A.B.C
