Active Appreciation of the Day

              I know it might be cliché to talk about my big bro in an essay about an active that I appreciate, but this is definitely true. My big bro has continually helped me with my problems and she will always be there. I can count on her to come if I need someone to talk to talk to. Like recently. I just recently had an emotional breakdown. In essence, my main problem was the fact that I had to choose between two equally competing aspirations: one to see my brother’s graduation, and the other to passing a class. I definitely did not know what to do. I began to cry and I called my big bro. She came right away and talked to me and helped me sort through my problem. Although I ceased to cry when she arrived, and attained more or less a balance, I still feel that her presence has helped me find the answer I was looking for. She helped me realize that although the decisions we make may be hard, some may be necessary.

              Kaycee is also very considerate and she is everything I want to be in a person. She is very compassionate. From all the people I have met, she constantly thinsk about others and I love that about her. Considerate people are high in my book. Also, Kaycee is very analytical. Although she might seem very loud and proud and spontaneous, Kaycee thinks things through before following though on them. Kaycee takes very good observations. She really looks at the small actions that may go unnoticed to some people, and can read people better than others can. She can read me like a book, and most people really cannot read me.

              Kaycee is also one of the big bro little bro chairs. One day, I want to be one. She takes to heart all of the values that the big bro little bro chairs need: a genuine love for others, a compassionate side, an empathetic side, and clear judgment. This is why I love and appreciate Kaycee. She understands me in ways that other people cannot.
