The person I admire

   
     The person I admire is Matsushita Konosuke. He is the person who created the company, Panasonic. Panasonic is one of the famous Japanese company which produces some machines. The machines made by Panasonic are very popular all over the world. I also use them.

     The reason why I admire him is because he was a modest person. Normally, successful people are selfish. But, he was always modest, and thought about other people.

     One day, a man and wife met him on the train by chance. They were surprised because he was already famous. Then, they said something and gave him mandarins which they had. He said Thank you to them. They were happy just talking with the person that created Panasonic. When he got off the train, he kept bowing to them until he couldn't see them! The man and wife were so moved. This is the famous story that shows us his modesty.

     I want to be a person like him. I think modesty and appreciation is the most important thing ever.

    Those are indeed good characteristics to admire. In the U.S. we admire Bill Gates, not only because he started Microsoft, but also because he has generously given away over $28 billion of dollars to different charities. If a person can do something great and also be kind and humble, that is truly a noble man.
