Most people look up to famous historical figures, but the person who inspires me most is my ordinary mother.
She spends every day taking good care of our family. She cooks warm meals and cheers me up when I feel stressed. She firmly believes everyone deserves equal kindness, so she treats relatives and neighbours with great warmth.
She never creates amazing achievements, but her selfless love touches my heart deeply. I truly learn that greatness hides in ordinary lives. We ought to value quiet kindness and pass warmth to people beside us.
