“Be the change that you wish to see in
the world” Mahatma Gandhi This first sentence tells you pretty much what the
topic is. The topic is that if you can change three things about the world what
would it be? The first thing that I would change is to stop littering.
Littering is a very popular thing that people do today. When you walk down very
common streets that many people walk on a day with clubs and bars nearby, you
would realise that the street is filled with garbage and other wastes.
How can we stop this? We can simply stop this
by making an example to show the right thing to do. If we catch someone
littering we can tell them it is wrong to do so. When you go to popular beaches
and other places like that you can see that there is a lot of litter. Problem =
solution. We can get people from you church or school and make a little group,
and every other week we can go to the beach and pick up garbage and also have
fun while doing it.
Remember, I did say three things. For
the second thing I would like to change about the world is bullying. In every
place that you go to, there will be someone that will pick on you and treat
unfairly. Bullies mainly do this because they are usually having family
problems, or if not they would be using their size for their ability. It is not
an easy thing to go through when being bullied.
How can we fix this? We can fix this
by simply telling thing the grownups near you. They would only have the power
to correct the person and correct the situation. Although, sometimes this
method doesn’t work. Sometimes some people would even make it worse. This had
happened to my sister in my old school. Every time she would tell on the other
girl it would be just like adding fuel to a fire. To then stop this you must
try to keep your distance away from the person you are being bullied. Then if
that doesn’t work you just have to communicate with the people around you. Also
you can put up signs and posters to help to stop bullying.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is very
important to me. It has brought so much joy and happiness to me and my family. My
life is so much better with the gospel in my life it has brought only good
things. Living the gospel teaches us to love one another to serve others and be
our brother’s keeper. Sharing the gospel with others through missionary work
can change the world, because we can flood the earth with love and hope. My dad
has been an excellent example to me. About twenty four years ago, my dad served
as a missionary here in Trinidad and Tobago.
Through his example I have seen
how the gospel can change people’s lives, which has inspired me when I turn
eight teen to serve a full time mission myself. I can’t think of a better way
that I myself could change the world than to be a missionary for my heavenly
father. The more missionaries we have on the
earth today, the more people will know and understand about the gospel and the
word of God. Feeling the presence of God is like walking into a candy store
filled with things you love, you just want everything. The presence of God is
one of the most amazing things ever and I want everyone to feeling this magical
sensation.
