It is my pleasure to use this opportunity to pay a respect to my sponsor, who has never relented efforts. I would have preferred to acknowledge my parent, but I choose someone who is not entitled to shoulder my loads yet have intentionally done it.
Miss Grace is my immediate sister. She is a hardworking sibling that have impact my life for over 4yrs now. Her hard have automatically made her become my role model. I used to regard her as a caring sister only, but my mindset changed entirely to regarding her as not only a caring sister but a mentor, guidance, sponsor and many more.
My sister’s role in my life began when I was about to register my West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). There was no money, so my parent decided that I should try my luck in my school. A center that had issues which lead to a lot of candidates result been withheld.
My sister stood up and handled the bills of taking me to another institution, registering my exams and purchasing my pass questions and uniform despite that she didn’t pay her school fee yet. I told her that she should save herself first because she is in higher institution, but she replied that God will surely make a way for her to pay and beside, my own is near dateline. The sacrifice pull out tears of joys in my eyes.
A week later, one of dad’s debtor paid all his debt. A great miracle because it is a long time debt that we didn’t even expect at that particular time. The money was used to pay her school fees immediately.
Since then, my sister have remained my defender and gist partner. Whenever I have problems, she always told me not to depend on my parent but try to get a nice occupation before I start higher institution. Even before her great sacrifice when I wanted to write my final exams, she has always assist me buying textbooks and transportation fee.
After my exams, she still connected me to my current work. A job that have helped me finance a lot of my private needs without depending on anybody. Her sacrifice for me is unbelievable. Whenever I see some people talking about how uncaring their sibling(s) are, I always feel that I’m very much opportune to have an incomparable sister. She is even the one that started calling me Ann since childhood. A name that have even overwhelmed my real name.
My hidden dream for my sister
My sister always tell me one statement; Ann, you don’t own me anything in assistance in return. It is my responsibility to help you reach your goals. The only thing you owe is graduating with an impressive result, have your own private business even if your work anywhere and try your best to settle down with a God-fearing man. As for me, that’s her wish, but I have a hidden dream which is;
Been responsible to her children in an unbelievable level. If I’m opportune to travel out of this country, I will sacrifice to see that my sister’s children that want to migrate to the country actualize their dreams. My sister children will receive a high level of care from me. This is always my dream and I pray that God help me.

It is not everyday you see someone help you without expecting anything in return.
One thing you need to know is that you must pay it forward. Remember to also help and show a little kindness.
