We are looking for answers to some hard questions as we dig deep inside and explore our own core values and how that guides not just our own lives but the very world that we live in. These questions will be asked to a group of high school students but we would also like to hear from the world at large. While we hope to keep this forum wide open we do reserve the right to delete responses that we find to be offensive or combative in nature. Thank you for participating with us.

His Holieness, Tenzen Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama - his laughter is the echo of inner peace.
I would have to say I admire my foster dad Pete Aunchmen. He is like a real dad to me. I look up to him because of his leadership, reasponsabilaty, and detacation in everything he does. He took me in to his house wene LINCS tried to put me in another group home. I can honestly say that Pete Aunchmen is my dad after what he has done for me. He is part of my family.
I admire my mom she was a nice lady and she didn't just think about her self i wish i was more like her she had a beautiful smile and admire her for all the things she did she helped homeless people when we had extra food she loved her kids and when we was down she was there untill she died. i love my mom for that
I admire the people in the war, also almost everyone around the world even Osama Bin Laden not because of him personly just that he also has an opion most of them may not be right but some are. Also the staff in my grouphome, they get cursed at and beat up on but they dont give up on us, they still stick by our side which some people can not do. I also admire my teacher she is always ther to support us and even if we are mean or rude to her she dose not tell us to go ask someone else, she is able to smile, and she is also able to give us encougragement. the last two people are my brother trever he was able to put his anger aside and become a better person. Also my attorney she cares and is more than just a attorney she is also a loving careing lady. also my social woker he is a honest person and is able to control his anger, also my sister who is no longer with us. Also my family they are great people.
The person(s)I admire the most is my grandpa,my teacher, and most important Martin Luther King Jr. .
The way I can be like my grandpa is do what he did and always said.
For my teacher I would like to help people when ever they need help.
Now for Martin Luther King Jr. I would like to be able to stand up for myself and others.
i admire my sister because we went through alot together but she was the only one who was strong enough to keep going in life and stay out of drugs and finished high school,she's my role model.and i love her.
she is funny and honest and she try's to be cool. she wants to be something she likes to be in the future. I can be more like this person by believing in myself.
The thing all my heros have in common is probably intelect. This is the thing i value most - intelligence. I rate it above all others. 2nd would probably come personal loyalty. I admire people who will remain commited to their friends. I dont admire people who are loyal to a cause or country though.
"To be or not to be" when it comes to the inspiring words of William Shakespear. He is atrue poet that has always had his way with words. As awsome as he is I truely was touch by his amazing work. The way I can be more like him is by keeping my pasion alive.
My family has always inspired me to be a better person in myself. My mom left me when I was 8 years old so she can pull herself together It took til now to realize that if she would have stayed my life would be horrible with her. She taught me that you might have to do the most horrible thing in order to give the people you love a better life.
If you didn't treat people the you wanted to be treat than that you can try to be nice to the others.
Debbi.
I really admire the way she stands up for what she believes in and how supportive she is of the people that she cares about.
She is very honest and will tell you exactly what she thinks but she never does it in a mean way because she is just NOT a mean person.
I don't think that we could do many of the things that we get done in our classroom without her and I hope that we all take time to appreciate her each and every day.
I could be more like her if I paused and remembered that the people are always MORE important than the never ending tasks that it seems like we always have to do.
THis is the hardest one to date.
My friend Carol, because she has the biggest heart in the world. She is a daycare provider with good behaviour management skills. She is also very generous and helped me out when I thought I was at the end of my rope.
Thank you Carol.
The way to be that way is to let go of the past pains and disappointments and move on.
I would have to say all the people who believe in themselves and stand up for what they believe in.
I am doing so much to take the time and the steps necessary to become such a person.
I've been putting off answering this one for a while now. I do admire several people for different reasons. I would say that, at this time, the one characteristic that I most admire is passion.
Michelle has tons of this...look at this blog for proof. I've seen it elsewhere when she talks about what she does for a living. You can tell she is being sincere and truly is joyful when she speaks of the successes the school has had. You can see it in the tear-laden eyes as she mentions the unfortunate ones who wavered from the path she helps them build. I certainly never came in contact with a teacher like her when I was a student. One day, I would love to feel that passionate about my career.
