Personal Essay

Topic-If I could change the world

       If I could change the world I would get rid of cancer, hatred, prejudice people, and bills. I know it sounds kind of strange or weird thing to get rid of but I have my reasons.

       First, I would get rid of cancer because it is a disgusting disease. I know how it feels to have someone taken away from you because of this horrible disease. I had my grandmother taken away from me 12 years ago. If I was not for cancer running in the family or even existing then maybe she would still be here with me to this day. Who knows who is going to be taken away from me next? So that is why I would get rid of cancer. I just wished cancer got cancer and died.

       Then next I would get rid of hatred. I would get rid of hatred for many reasons. First off if everyone did not hate each other there would be no fights, no war just peace. And if there was no war or fights all the families at war could come back home with there families. Were they are suppose to be. Just because they are fighting out there it is not stopping all the people near us from doing harm to us.

       Next I would get rid of people being prejudice. Even though Dr. Martin Luther King jr. got rid of segregation there are still people being prejudice. Weather it is dealing with race, religion, or gender, it is everywhere we look. In the schools, in the stores, on the road, even sometimes right next door to you. Like in the book tears on a tiger Andy says how his councilor treated him with his career idea. If we did not have people being prejudice then w people could probably have more advantages then just a certain race.

       Now finally I would get rid of bills. Not like bills as in money like bills to when you have to pay off something to the bank. Yeah I know it sounds kind of weird right. But if we did not need money for everything then there would not be so many people out on the street dying homeless, and sick. I do not like the fact that we just sit there a watch all this happen and not do anything about it. I mean what if it was us out there wouldn’t you want someone to help you. Then why don’t you help someone. Courtesy can go a long way but it all comes down to who shows it first.

       So, to make my idea of a perfect world I would get rid of cancer, hatred, prejudice people, and bills. Like I said I have my reasons.
