During a talk at the annual awards conference, Burns talked about how her mother, who raised Ursula single, in one of the worst New York City Public Housing Projects, loved to give advice. Ursula was the middle sibling among three. Her father was not around, but her mother was a confident woman who always expected great things from her kids. She taught Ursula how to strive and move up. Her mom always knew her way around a good deal and therefore she hustled to put them in private school.
In all of these competitions, Justyna Kowalczyk proudly represented the country of her background: Poland. She did not simply represent herself, but the country she was from. This is one of the most positive influences that she has had on the Polish culture. Working towards her goals of becoming a World Champion in sports was a feeling that never died. You can clearly tell her great pride of her Polish heritage when she was handed the Gold medal in Sochi, Russia during the Winter Olympics.

Mary’s older sister, Jackie, is very confident and has a very high self-esteem. She’s describes as a “bonfire” who looks more mature than her fourteen years (10). With her flirting she makes everyone happy with laughter and keeps the energy going for a long time. As I reflect on my up bring, I was raised in a single parent home with six other siblings. My sister, Shalecia, is much like Mary’s sister
We were always there for each other and I could never imagine my life without her. She was the only person in my life that I could definitely trust and rely on. I always knew how lucky I was to have this special kind of friendship. We spent so much time together and made so many plans for our lives. But nobody pretends to know what is ahead of them in life.

Some will say hockey is the Canadian identity, some may agree or disagree, but those people could be right, sports is something so easy to take pride in, there’s nothing better than gathering with a few close friends and watching the world juniors knowing that half the country is glued to the TV cheering for the exact same thing you are. Something so simple but so unifying at the same time. Or going out for a walk in the park on a beautiful day, breathing in the fresh air and enjoying the scenery, knowing you’re lucky to be from the great country you are from.

I can say that our relationship is more like best friend, but here in America is totally different. In fact, American children have too much freedom and they don’t seem to spend too much time with their parents or family members. In Peru is really rare for the kids, especially for girls to move out of their parents’ house even after they turn eighteen. My mother always reminds us that family should be together and support each other when needed. Now, we know that very soon we have to care for our mother in every way, the same way she took care of us.

She has been my teacher, counselor, role model, and friend for the past 19 years. For me, she has become a source of inspiration and a constant reminder of what true love really means. The characteristic of my mother are none of what are different from any that I have seen in other people. The moment I perceived that I was listening attentively and helping people out in many ways, and taking responsibility for things, I realized that I was following the example of my mother.
