I admire Mahatma Ghandi the most. I wish there were more men like him in todays world. I admire him because of his non violence approach to freedom. He showed the world that we can achieve and gain freedom without weapons.

That was his persnol choice. His celibacy had nothing to do with his fight for freedom.

i understand... do you think it's possible for Gandhi to succeed now with his same principles(let's take the Kashmir issue)

I can't really say because I admire so many people for different reasons Like my parents. I was adopted by my grandparents and I admire them for it. If they hadn't I probably wouldn't be here today. I admire my husband because he sacrifices his time with us for his job. I admire my sister in lew because shes a single mom with 4 boys to raise on her own. I admire my Brotther because he is in the NAVY and is currently in the middle of the ocean. So I admire many people for different reasons.

I agree there's none to beat our parents... What kind of a parent would you be to your kid? What if he turns out to be a murderer, let's just say...

My Dad's side of the family. They were always fun, and uplifting, and were very openly and honest, had a wonderful sense of humor. They always made life to live for... With their optimistic humor, and silly antics. - DNatureofDTrain
