A person who inspires me is _________ because....
A person who inspires me is Diego Forlan because he committed to becoming a professional soccer for his family. Forlan plays soccer in Spain for Atletico Madrid and his home country Uruguay, whom he led to the semi-finals of the World Cup against the Netherlands. While also being an incredible goal scorer and overall player, Forlan has a bigger meaning behind his love for the game. When Forlan was 11 years old, his older sister was paralyzed for life from a deadly car crash. From that point on, Forlan swore that his future success in soccer would be able to pay his sisters medical bills and living costs for the rest of her life. As he promised, Diego Forlan worked hard throughout his childhood to eventually become one of the best players in the game today. While people view Forlan as just an incredible soccer player, they are not aware of the benign acts he goes through for his family.
