Making Peace

This has not been just another English class; it has been more than that. During this semester I have learned so much about Peacemakers, organizations, what is happening in our neighborhood, and at the same time I was able to improve my English skills, and how to express myself and what I think through blogs and assignments. I learned that there are so many people out in the world making a change for peace. And I know that I am contributing with little things such as helping my community. At the moment I’m working with the local foster organization called Lutheran Social Services in gathering donations such as toys for their Christmas Party, and in a couple of weeks I will helping out with the ‘Secret Santa’ held by the Salvation Army and America’s National Technical Honor Society.
As for the future I cannot really say how it will turn out to be, but one thing that will continue to be in me is HOPE. Hope that, one day, things will change for good; hope that people will change their mentality and open up their hearts to a better world. I will continue putting my effort in all I can do to help out in one way or another. I have always enjoyed helping my community through organizations and on my own. I may not be the greatest peacemaker, but I know I can start making a change with little steps.
