working as hard as I can. It sounds like a bad thing, but the hard work almost always pays
off.
Family is a value that my father taught me.

Another value that was influenced by my parents as well as television, is friendship.
Even though your family is always there for you, friends are still very important to have.
Having friends will usually raise a person's self-esteem. By having friends you know that
you are a good...
