Abstract

The first part is about a defining moment in my life where I was training to become a lifeguard and in my final test, I popped a blister while I was giving CPR in forty degree weather; yet I managed to persevere and complete the course. The second part is about my great grandmother who was a shepherd and fought a wolf to save a lamb when she was only seven years old. We have very different lives but we share the characteristic of perseverance and she is very inspirational to me.
