My significant adult is Marty Fagin. this person has inspired me my whole life by supporting my goals, encouraging me to try my best, and to try new things. He is very supportive of education and of everything I want to do. He always makes sure I have what I need to be successful in my life. I look up to him very much because of the interests we share and because of his kind and comforting nature. He shows effort by keeping a committed workout routine and staying in shape and healthy no matter what. He shows integrity by always telling me the truth about how things are and by staying truthful to himself. He shows respect by always being there as someone I can trust and proving himself as a trustworthy person. There are so many more amazing things that I could talk about that he has done but if I did this TPOL would go on for hours. Thank you Marty for coming to this TPOL and for being such a significant person in my life.
