Who is important to me and why?
When I read this question, I suddenly thought of both my father and my mother. I couldn’t think of single person. Therefore, I will have two people in my response. My parents are the most important people to me. Well, this answer could be somehow a cliché, but for must of us, unless we are married, is the most reasonable response.
I am not saying that other than my parents I don’t care about other people in my life, but when I think of who is in the top of my life’s most-liked people, I see no one other than my parents. My parents are special; they go through any difficulty with no question to make my life easier, and they never look for return.
I moved here two years ago. More than any other thing, I missed my father because he had to stay for his job. He had to work to help me stay here. Moreover, he had to stay alone in order to let me have my mother with me during the first few months. Before that, my father had never been without my mother, but he decided that to save me from the homesickness that many people feel when they move to a new country. Marriage is two-way road, so my mother has gone through the same process. Having this thought in my mind makes me love them more and more every moment.
My country is not in a good situation right now. Iran has many political issues on the top of tons of other issues such as terrible air pollution, which this on its own can kill many young and aged people, and chaos all over the country because of the excruciating economy, which has made many people bankrupt. My father is aware of all these problems, but he still continues his job and stays there only to help me build and guarantee my future here although he could easily retire himself and join us here.
On the other hand, my mother has left her old mother and many friends she has in Iran just to make sure that I am having a good and healthy life here. She has come here, and she stays at home all day long cleaning the house and cooking different foods to keep me in a healthy environment so I can study and not get distracted by anything else.
I can’t just ignore all these sacrifices. Therefore my answer to this question is “My parents.” I love them more than anything or anyone in my life. I am sure that I can’t return even one thousandth of what they have done for me, but I will do whatever it takes to make them happy.
