What is happening to Paul is great, I wish it was the same for everyone.👍👍👍

[@TheLittleGamer123]

this story was buetiful. and my parents are the ones who helps me and are still helping me get to the goal I want. We should all be great full for our parents, for some people who don't have parents you should be great full for the people who takes care of you and we all should help the people that helps us back.

[@Czarny390]

This story is really unbelievable. It shows how to reach the goals you set before you. And how to be not afraid all the difficulties on your way. In order to make your dreams come true, you just need to believe yourself and aspirate to what you want. As for me, I've always wanted to speak English fluently and confidently. Thank you for this opportunity learning such wonderful language by listening to these stories!

[@LovelyEnglishStories]

Thank you so much for watching. We’re glad it was helpful for you and you enjoyed it!

[@hninhnin-gr4wf]

What an inspiring story, Thanks for your intriguing story that makes me feel energetic and motivated. The person who help me to achieve a splendid thing is my parents who are genuinely supportive and conscientious. They give me an allowance to do whatever l want and they have never complained about doing extra work, so l tried my best to be outstanding at school to make my parents proud. I am pursuing my passion which is a well - paid job. Now, l am able to look after properly and fulfill their desires completely without being apprehensive about money. I feel like giving them a better life and being perfect even if l can't make them live in luxury .

It happened when I was a teenager. In those period I couldn't find my role of life and I pretended to cope others characteristics, especially of people whom I respect much. But once, one of them gave me a brilliant advice: don't pretent being like everybody, be unique. They have their own life and lot, how can you live their life?!

[@user-pf8bt8ph6k]

Thanks for this story! It's interesting, but I sometimes watch your videos for C1-C2 levels (they're always breathtaking) and don't find a word I did't know and feel satisfied 😆. At the same time, in this video for B1-B2 I found "gobsmock" and "jinx". I'll add them to my vocabulary 😉 As for the question, I think lots of people influenced my life: my parents, teachers, friends, husband and children. I'm grateful to them all ❤️
