An Influential Woman

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that, when the author was a child, her grandmother's death had a huge impact on her life; however, as she grew older, she found out that her grandmother's death wasn't a huge impact at all. The author points out that when her grandma was alive was when her impact began because she had taught the author the importance of the church, the teachings of Jesus Christ and helped her become a devout follower of Christianity. The paper relates that the author's grandma had taught her many things, but the most important responsibility she taught the author was that the world was basically a temporary place.

From the Paper:

"If grandma were still alive, she would say that there would be no greater man than Jesus, and that he will come again not to teach but to save man who had faith and take them into the Kingdom of God. "That day is called Judgment Day," she said in a loud and thunderous voice that frightened me half to death. "That is why you should follow Christ and have faith in him." To this day I know no greater man than Jesus. The last knowledge she taught me was how to be a good follower of Christianity, as if I were a true patriot for my country. One day she told me, "Never be a hypocrite! A hypocrite is a person who feigns to be what he is not!""
