Secret Agent: Family

Family is a huge influence on one's life. Family plays a huge role in shaping a person. Their views, beliefs, even habits all originate from their family members. Some even pursue the same career as their parents or gaurdians. In my own family, before my family had moved back to the United States, we had lived in Ireland where my father was a high school teacher. Next year I am planning to go to Miami University to study to become a special education teach and the high school level. So i guess one could say I followed in the footsteps of my father. Even our personalities are unlike. Not only do I look a lot like my father, we act alike too. Our sense of sarcastic humor, active lifestyle, and temper are all the same. When you think about this, is it really that weird? I mean maybe it's a little weird that I have all these qualities similar to my father and almost none to my mother. Maybe that was becuase at a young age I observed my father's actions more than my mothers or for some other reason. Family provides the basis for your morals and your quirks. It's unusual to realize that even one's quirks that one may think makes them different from others is not really that different becuase they were taught to you by others when you were younger and still using observations as your main way to learn.
