Although she was raised in an Orthodox Jewish family, she married a black man, and then went on the raise all her children as Christians. Although facing adversity for these reasons, James McBride and his siblings still became successful, mostly because of the strength his mother provided for his family. All of the McBride children were put through college by his mother, even though they often struggled with finances. McBride tells how certain events in his everyday life and his background shaped and molded him into who he is today. I believe that in writing this book, McBride is establishing the fact that he is very proud of his success and how his mother was key in helping him accomplish it, but most of all, proud of his mother for being who she was.

I spent a whole year in a public school called Leuzinger. I spent my time building up my resume and grades so that once I tried again I would hands down have no problems. So mid-year my grades came out and I had received over a 3.6 GPA to make the Honor Roll. I would constantly see Serra in the newspaper winning championships.

Half the Woman By: Tori Clark She was a mother, a sister, an aunt, a hard worker, and my great-grandmother, but most of all, she was and still is the biggest influence in how I live my life. She has shaped my life in many ways; she taught me to be nice to everyone, appreciate what you have and never be selfish because you won’t always be here in this world. She also taught me to work hard in school and in the outside world, and to no matter what to never give up. She didn’t necessarily teach me how to do these things or sit down and have a talk with me about never giving up it’s just something I picked up from the long life she lived. Melvie Magdalene "Maggie" Johnson worked hard her whole life.
Yes, we have known each other before attending college but this transitioning stage in life has really opened my eyes to my own reality. Maranda and I have known each other for about 6 years now, and I can honestly say she has helped me become the person I am today. If it was not for her getting on me, pushing me to get my things done and us working together with homework, I would probably still be in culture shock today. Every day she inspires me to do my best in college so that in the future I will be able to help provide for my family and me. Getting to know her the past few years has definitely helped made our friendship stronger, both inside and out of school.

I excelled early in sports and I learned to make my own way in life, and could you imagine how
Community involvement is very important. The best thing a person can donate is their time. It is every individual’s responsibility to help others in their community and beyond. For the past four years, I have gained experience through serving breakfast to the homeless at St. Andrew’s Church on the second Saturday of every month, preparing and teaching for Vacation Bible School, assisting special needs students, and acting as a teacher’s assistance for grade five, and seven classes, as well as grade eight classes. Through my experiences volunteering with children of various ages, as well as at-risk adults in the homeless community, I have discovered my passion for helping others.

Satisfaction never runs out in my life while my mother is still here with me. My greatest mother is a responsible woman.
