Model paragraph:

Every morning when I leave home, I pass by one of my most valued

possessions, a beautiful acoustic guitar. It was given to me more than 20 years
ago and has hung on the wall of every apartment I have ever lived in. I received
it from a friend who lives in Cali. I look up to him because he has always known
how to make the best out of any bad situation. When he decided to give it to me
I felt privileged because I was told his dad had given it to him.

MY RING

My high school graduation ring

When a member of my family graduates from something, their parents usually give
them a graduation ring.

My great treasure is a beautiful graduation ring, my parents gave me the ring when I
graduated from the School from that moment I have kept it and I wanted a lot my
ring. I was delivered at a surprise party that my family organized to celebrate this
great achievement, with this party my family has always shown me How important
I've been in the family, since I have mainly fought to achieve the dreams that my
family and I have for each other.

This ring has been very important and special for me, the ring has been a symbol of
dedication and love, sacrifice and a lot of dedication, the ring is gold and has a stone
called emerald and I have never lost it. Well, I always take good care of it and I try to
never lose it or it can be stolen from me, since this would be terrible for me, because
my parents gave it to me with a lot of effort and it has a lot of sentimental value.

I always carry the ring with me even when I go to the beach.

The ring and I have had many adventures on one occasion diving the ring was
choking with a mesh that was at the bottom of the ocean, and it was very difficult to
release the ring in a moment I thought I had lost my ring but thanks to the Instructor
who managed to release I used a diving knife, from that moment I was much more
careful with my ring.

On one occasion. I was in a difficult situation and thought for a moment to sell my
ring to get out of this difficult situation but I thought a lot and decided not to sell it
because my ring is a treasure very appreciated that my parents have given me.

I even consulted with my parents because I really had bad money and I needed to
pay debts and also my university studies to continue studying, but my parents gave
me a little money so that I would not have to sell it so I could continue to keep it.
