A strong sense of community can have positive effects on both individuals and communities (Kloos et al., 2012) and participation in the community is a fundamental aspect of a good life for individuals (Strike, 1993).

I believe that kindness and compassion are like a domino sequence. Once a person does a nice thing to someone else, the next person will also try to do something nice, and a chain of good actions that will cross neighborhoods, cities maybe even travel around the globe. Since I was a kid nothing pleasures me more than helping others. I’ve always knew that I wanted to be a volunteer, just like my mom always knew she wanted to be a doctor (and now she is an amazing one). I made my definitive…

Henty’s historical fiction novel, In Freedom’s Cause offers many leaders who rise during the Scottish rebellion against English rule, but one of the most savvy, wise, and proud of all was King…

Everyone on Earth’s purpose is to be beatific. People live their lives so the outcome will satisfy them for years to come. They don’t long for sadness or sit down and don’t fix what makes their lives invidious. Similarly in Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton, the main character suffers from unhappiness in his marriage and finds someone else who makes him happy, ultimately putting himself first before other people.

Although this is a very broad description, I mainly focus on academically and physically helping. Academically, I would say that I’m above average but I’m not exactly a genius. There are a few classmates in all of my classes that somewhat struggle. But the main classes are Algebra 2, Japanese and Honors Biology. My Algebra 2 class is…
