Journal 8/12

I think that one thing that drives Andrew Stanton is that he wants to make people care about what he is doing. He wants to give readers a story that they will care about and enjoy reading. What drives me is wanting to change lives for the better. I want to positively influence at least one persons life.  It's scary to think about going that in two hundred years you most likely won't be remembered. I don't want that to happen. I want to be remembered by at least one person as the man who gave him money when I couldn't buy food or the man who gave people shelter when they did not have a house. I know that this is a grand wish but I believe that it is possible. I want to be able to change people's life's for the better. I want to help people and I believe that everyone should have equal rights. We say that everyone has equal rights in America but that is a flat out lie. People are constantly put down everyday and I think that needs to stop. My spine is the idea that I don't care what people say about me. They are holding themselves back by saying those things and if I choose to respond to them then I am holding myself back. If I let them go then I can continue going forward and helping people. This video helped me to learn how to make one care. You have to let them guess a little for themselves  you can't just give them all the answers. It didn't really affect the way I see the world it just helped me understand why I see it that way. Andrew Stanton said, " We're born problem solvers, work compelled to deduce and to deduct,  because that's what we do in real life, it's well organized absence  information that draws us in." This quote helped me to better understand why I see the world the way that I do.

  1. I think that you have a very honorable mission. You are clearly a humanitarian at heart, and I have every confidence that you will change AT LEAST one person's life. I know that other students at school have sensed your kindness, and you have been a very positive addition to our community.
