I want to be a good mother and wife. I want to be a good example to my friends and neighbors. I want to help all those who I can.
As for personally. I DON'T want to become my mother, Obsessed with cleanliness and driven to make others dependant on me even if it means finding imaginary faults. I do want to emulate my grandma in many ways. She was remembered by many as being very giving and concerned for the well being of others. I want to emulate my grandpa who is respected by many simply because when he opens his mouth his words are wise.
I want to be balanced. I don't want to be obsessed with anything but I want to strive to do my best in all that I do. It's not a concrete image. I'm constantly changing the image I want to become as I learn what is better for me to strive for.
At this point I am pleased with what I have become. I have flaws but they don't seem glaring to me. My worst flaw, as I see it, is that I tend to talk too much and not listen enough.
