=Even Though You're Not Good at Everything, You Can Improve the World=

=Imagine yourself in a place where there's garbage everywhere. People littering like the ground is a garbage can. How could you improve this world you're living in? Anne Frank once said, "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." This means that we can improve our world. = =Helping other people learn what they don't know is one way we can improve this world. In Holes, by Louis Sachar, a boy named Stanley Yelnats was a very selfish person, until he realized that a kid named Zero didn't know how to read and write, so then he decided to help Zero, and felt it was the right thing to do. In the same way, I know all the basics of basketball, maybe one day I can help children what the basics of basketball is. Even though you're not good at everything, by helping other people learn what they don't know is one way to improve the world. = = = =Another way is that people take responsibility for their own actions. For example, if Kaya threw a water bottle across the lunch table, the lunch lady accused someone else, then Kaya admits she threw the water bottle, Kaya took responsibility for throwing the water bottle. Also, another way is that if you take responsibility for what you did, the teacher won't get mad because you weren't lying. = = = =The most important way we can improve this world is to find ways to help your community. Ways to help your community is by picking up garbage at a local beach, or just walking around your neighborhood and picking up garbage there. Also, you can donate money to the less fortunate. My friend raised about $2,000 to St. Baldrick's for her to shave her head for the people who have cancer. Is that a way to improve your world? = = = =Now imagine yourself in a place where no one is littering, no broken windows or glass on the roads, people helping their neighborhoods, or more people going to a local beach and picking up garbage from a natural disaster that happened. Don't you realize that people are starting to care more about our world? As Anne Frank once said, "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." This means we can improve our world. = = =
