I don't think that I actually have a particular role model because I don't fully imitate or grasp other people way of life because I have some principles in my life to achieve my virtue- and yes my principles are changing over time by the way my perspective to see the life, but according to Oxford Dictionary, a role model is "a person looked to by others as an example to be imitated".  So it means I have a lot of role models that seems to have the same virtue like me, for example, Socrates, Diogenes of Sinope (Diogenes was a common name on 300BC), Adriano Qalbi, my dad, and the list goes on.       Socrates is one of my role models because of his honesty to himself that he was accepting the fact that he didn't know anything.
