Mom- The woman I know as my mother is biologically my ant. She raised me since I was 3 months old. She provided a nurturing and a positive environment for me growing up. She and I were the only two in the house; therefore we had an inseparable bond. Growing up, my mother made me feel as if I could have anything I wanted to have. She instilled morals and values in me that I hold dear to this day. I could not imagine life without her. Our relationship remains the same till this very day. I go to my mom for guidance, wisdom, prayer and support. 

Sister- my sister has always been and will always be my role model. At times she has acted like a second mother to me. She has always been there to support me financially. She has always listened to what I have to say, whether it is negative or positive. I love having her in my life as a non-judgmental person. I think everyone needs someone in their life that they can relieve life worries and hardships too. I love my sister for that. I adore her spirit and ambition. She saw things in me that I did not see for myself. It is truly a blessing to have her in my world.

Grandmother- As she rest in heaven, I reflect on our times. When I was a young child, while my mother worked she cared for my cousin and I. My grandmother was so strict on her grandchildren. When I was younger, I did not understand why she made us do the things that she did. Now that I am older, I know exactly why she instilled the things that she did. I would give anything to tell her the lessons I have learned from her upbringings. My grandmother got me in the routine of living a successful life.

My best friend Chanelle- Chanelle is like a sister I never had. She has been a very great friend to me. We grew up in the same town and our families are mutual friends. I believe we share such a bond because we share the same interest and we experience so much of the same things. I share everything with her from pain to pure happiness. We do not live in the same town anymore so that limits us from hanging out like we used to. Now that we are older we keep our relationship in tact by talking on the phone, and to be honest it doesn't feel a bit different.

Na Na- My nana is my ant. She was the educational enforcer of my life. She has been the person who set a strict foundation of education for me. She helped support me throughout my college journey financially and educationally. I adore her because of her strong spirit. She has always been the rock in our family. My ant and my mother are very close and they have a huge impact in the way I live today.
