=A Wonderful World = = = = = ="How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world," is a very special quote written by Anne Frank. It tells us that you can start helping the world by the little or big things you do. Anne Frank, a hidden child during the Holocaust, tells how you should positive and active toward the community around us, and how we should try and help the earth, not destroy it. People can improve the world around them by teaching others, taking responsibilities for your actions, and becoming involved in the community. = = = =One way to improve the world around you is to teach others what you know. In the book //Holes //, Stanley meets a boy  n amed Zero. When Stanley finds out that Zero can't read or write, he helps out bey teaching him how to. This example shows how much you can change the world with just what you know. I could make a difference by teaching the younger students at the fencing place I go to the proper stance and position, just like the older kids taught me. Just by the little things you do, it could have a big impact on the world, and the people li ving in it. = = = =Taking Responsibility for your actions is just another way to improve our world. For example, Socrates of Ancient Greece was teaching and telling bad things about the government. For his actions, he was told to drink poison. His family and friends told him to runaway, but Socrates said it was only fair for him to obey the law. This shows how for everything you do good and bad consequences can occur. Another example of taking responsibility for your actions is Pee Wee Reese on Jackie Robinson's baseball team. All Pee Wee's team mates didn't like Jackie. Pee Wee didn't think this was right. During one of his games Pee Wee put his arm around Jackie like good friends, stood there and chatted. Even though all Pee Wee's team mates thought he was crazy, Pee Wee didn't care because he knew he did the right thing. S howing just the smallest of kindness it can make a big difference in someone else's life, and toward the community as a whole. = = = =Lastly,</range id="428657100_4"> to improve the world you could become involved in your community. You could recycle or clean the side of the road or even volunteer at the local library. To improve it you could even commit kind deeds by helping the elderly cross the street or giving back a wallet you found in the mall parking lot. One example I could relate to was when my Girl Scout Troop did a food drive. Over a few weeks we collected many cans and other non perishable foods. We then brought the food to a place where the would distribute the food among many people who needed the items. <range type="comment" id="428659310_2">There are</range id="428659310_2"> tons of different ways to help and get engaged in your community. Don't feel like you have to make a big difference to make one at all, but simply the little things that you could do<range type="comment" id="428657100_5"> could make a difference.</range id="428657100_5"> =

=<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I wonder what the earth would look like if no one made an effort to help out. If no one ever cleaned up, everyone was rude, and no one helped out their neighbors. This is a world I would not want to live in. No one I know would. With things like helping the community, teaching others, and taking responsibility for your actions we have managed to keep our earth pretty nice. We just need to keep the world healthy for the future. With just the little or big things we do people can change the world around us. =
