I have a few role models, actually.
1. My mother. She is perhaps one of the strongest women I know. When her father passed away, she was always there for her mother. When her brother passed away unexpectedly, she was there for everyone. She always has time for me and my little sister and comes to all of our events. She has never missed a concert, play, or recitle of mine, nor does she miss many of Carly's sports events, save the ones that are so far away that gas prices force her to stay home. She keep the house together, and I hope to do the same when I'm older.
2. ~Ozy~. Yes, my pair. He has stuck by my side forever. No matter what my problem is, he listens. He's there for everyone all the time, no matter what's going on with him. I love him so much for that. He always encourages me and keeps me safe and happy. He's also saved me from myself more times than I care to count and took me out of a very hard time in my life. I hope to be as strong and selfless as he someday.
3. Terry Goodkind. He was the first fantasy author I ever really fell in love with. His writing is AMAZING, and I hope to get a novel that people will compare with his published some day. I know I have a long way to go before I'm ever on his level, but I'm not going to stop until I achieve!
