Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie once said "We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly." This quote explains how you can like someone for who they are even with their flaws. She has many accomplishments in her life such as, she is one of the most fascinating actresses in Hollywood today, both on and off the screen. "Once known for quirks such as her knife collection and assortment of tattoos, her image has progressed from edgy young actress to entertainment royalty", (Bio.com). Angelina Jolie possess things in different ways and therefore she is a hero, she is charitable and she overcomes struggles. One characteristic proving she is a hero is that she is charitable. She has been really successful with it.

"In 2005, Jolie received the Global Humanitarian Action Award from the United Nations Association of the USA for her activism on behalf of refugee rights", (Bio.com). She visits places wanting to help kids in need. She doesn't even get paid; she does it because it makes her happy. She does it for a good cause. She is also a Goodwill Ambassador and travels for that to for example, "She has been to WINDHOEK, Namibia as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UNHCR and donated food, tents, and sport equipment to nearly 24,000 refugees." She donated plenty of things to kids and still continues to in the future. This proves by doing what is right, without being told, you will get paid in return. She has nominated seven times for a golden globe award, that's one reason i think she's a hero, and not many people can say that's happened to them so i think that would be a huge success.

Angelina Jolie had to overcame some really big battles and she couldn't do it on her own, therefore she had to get help from family and her husband. "Angelina Jolie battled with anorexia and self-harming in her formative years growing up in Los Angeles", claims a new report. "Cis Rundle, a friend of the star's late mother Marcheline Bertrand, spoke with RadarOnline about the 39-year-old's childhood in a new interview. Rundle claims she 'carried' Jolie into a hospital during her 'anorexic stage' as a teenager after the actress' mother 'got scared that she wasn't eating'." It's really hard to overcome obstacles like this one, so therefore i'm amazed that she could get herself through this through the help of her husband Brad Pitt, she also did it so she could be a good mom to her kids ."She got very skinny, and was constantly crying. She was not a happy woman. She had suffered from continuing headaches, heart pain and jammed nerves in her back and ribs. she wasn't happy with herself so she got into these bad habits and they were hard to break out of them, she also didn't want any sort of help at all until she realized she really needed it.

Angelina Jolie has possessed many talents in her lifetime, and she also puts herself first and tries to make everyone as happy as they can be. For example she has adopted seven kids, and she used to be a mean person and did bad things but she found her true self when she learned being happy and nice to others is much better. She wants to make the world a better place. She has inspired many people to do better  including me.
