Dunno

I was watching TV and saw NBA Finals and it was the Miami Heat vs Ock this was back in 2012. And before the game there was a documentary about Lebron James and how his life was, and I saw how bad his life was and what he had to do to make his dreams come true. And one of his big let downs was getting cut from his high school basketball team. And I wanted to be like him getting put down but yet still succeeding more than his haters. So when I see someone going for there dream i'll just encourage them to keeping on going. Later on he became one of the best.

And I was surprised that someone like him can one day end up becoming so big and making something outta nothing and on 2003 he got drafted by the Cavaliers and now has two mvp awards. And also has won 2 NBA Finals and I remember that you always have to follow your dreams no matter what and don't care what people say about it. And I once was told that I will never have my dream become true and it was a waste of time. And every time I think i wont make something I think back that Lebron James had it rough to and he never quitted.

And I want to support my family like him, now hes living a good life and he has 3 kid one girl and two sons and he once looked up to his ideals and now passed them even though people don't like him because he left Cavs and joined Miami Heat and then he left Mami Heat and joined back that Cavs and he's on them right now and are in the NBA playoffs and took his team to the NBA finals. That shows me that a player can make a huge difference on a team and he is proving he's the best. I like him because so many people hate him but until he proves them wrong and shows them why he is where he is.

And I think that with hard work all your life and all the ups and downs it all pays off at the end that and I also learned that if you keep on going on and don't care what other people say you will be successful and become something big. And that I like him because we kinda have the same life but mine wasn't as bad but even with his worse he still made the NBA. So that gives me no excuse to do my goal and that he helps kids out and he's very own son is following his foot steps. And I want to help others in need because they don't have what we have and some people take things for granted and that I feel like there's a lot of unknown talent out there and I think there voice and talent should be heard and seen and that my essay about Lebron James.
