My hero [Abraham Lincoln] ①

 I think hero is our model of our life. My hero is Abraham- Lincoln. You
 
know what, he is very famous for his work. He was the president of U.S.A,
 
make a success of his job, and achieve emancipation of slaves, but it's not
 
the reason why I respect him. I am going to look at his life and learn from
 
his strengths. I think there are a lot of things to learn in his life. His hobby
 
was reading books. When he was young, he really liked reading books, so
 
it gave me him a vision. Actually his father was a farmer and wanted his
 
son to be a good farmer, but he didn't want to do that. I think reading books
 
let him see more of life and widen his experience. Maybe it helped him to
 
be able to stand alone, and don't just stay as a farmer. I think it's the first
 
secret of his success. Books give lessons to us and make us change.
 
Actually they have a strong power to make us aware of somethings
 
important in our lives an change into wiser people. If you want to see bigger
 
world and have bigger vision, let's read books. I think it a matter of regret
 
that many students don't like to read books, although it is good for us. I
 
know to start is always difficult, but if you start to do that, you can be
 
changed like him.
