The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My belief began when I was just a kid, who dreamed of becoming a doctor.
My mother was a . Through her work, she observed that people spent a lot more time reading than they watching television. She announced that my brother and I could only watch two to three pre-selected TV during the week. With our time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a . My mother was illiterate（文盲）.
When I entered high school I was a(n) student, but not for long. I began to like the fancy clothes. I wanted to the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I about not having enough Italian knit shirts.

With the money , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want." I was very pleased with that but once I got through allocating（分配）money, there was left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to keep the roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, let alone buy . I also realized that my wasn't going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my and became an A-student again, and I realized my dream and I became a doctor.
My story is really my mother's story--a woman with formal education or property who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around, especially her children. There is no job more important than . This I believe.
