An Inspiring Person (Complete)

The person who I´m going to talk about is one of the most important people in the last years, I mean Gandhi. His way of thought which was so amazing, is the principal reason that I really admire him.
Since the moment that I got a greater level of consciousness I started to think in the same way that Gandhi did because I´m a very pacific person.
Born on October 2, 1869, in Porbandar, India, Mahatma Gandhi studied law in order to advocate for the rights of Indians. After studying, he became a spiritual and a political leader. His way of thought, resistance through mass non-violent civil disobedience, allowed him to create a movement whose goal was the independence of Indians but he was jailed for conspiracy.
If Gandhis thoughts both non-violent civil disobedience and honesty gave important results for his country then we´re also able to create judgments to back up (support) a movement against the government and try to find out (discover) solutions in order to hang in (stay positive), in behalf of nowaday situation. Moreover, we we will go after (try to achieve) a new country without discrimination and rights for all at the same level unless we want to live at the wrong way the rest of our lives.
