Persuasive Essay On The Benefits Of Helping Others

Improved Essays
We saw how in Harry Potter, when he threw his invincibility cloak how awesome everything seemed. Imagine roaming around the world doing the unspeakable with nobody to even watch you do it. The power of invincibility is the best superpower of all simply because you can actually do whatever you want without anyone noticing. You could use your power to steal a bank and walk calm and collected through the front door carrying a million bucks without any problem. Invisibility could also be used for good. Besides, we need someone in this world who is willing to do anything for helping the rest of us. What could be better than helping others without suffering any consequences?

Life is hard, like our president said "voy a hacer lo que tenga que hacer”, sometimes it takes a little harsh decision to make something. You could become anything or anyone by just disappearing. You could do whatever you pleased just by fading away and becoming transparent. No one would ever notice, (assuming your stuff doesn't appear to be floating in the air, of course). Invisibility could make you the most INVNINCIBLE person in the world... no pun

    A vast majority of the population has felt functionally invisible at some point in their life. Being functionally invisible can make a person feel unimportant, unheard, and not cared about. Sometimes, in a family discussion, people feel as though their opinion is not recognized. Another situation where somebody feels functionally invisible is in the book, The Schwa was Here, where Old Man Crawley, Antsy, and Lexie feel functionally invisible.

    My advice to makayla is to never get stuck on one question no longer than five minutes. It's okay to skip a question and come back to it later once you have answer all of the other questions. It's also okay to guess intelligently on some of the questions. I feel that you shouldn't always linger on the same questions, because that can cause you to loose most of you time on the test.

It is clear; we should increase the size of our infantry. And it is fortunate we have this surplus of people lying around, literally. Experts tell us that tourists who see these homeless people lying around our cities find the to be demoralizing and therefore reduce the amount they spend.…
