Persuasive Essay
There has always been the argument of weather gay marriage should be legalized or not. Maybe there is something were missing.
Most people would say that is ungodly or against their religion but the advantage of living in America is that we’re free to choose our own religions or weather we even have one. People of many religions are married all the time in America but there is just that one belief that can’t, the belief of gay marriage.
On another note, the argument of children has been a very big side subject under homosexuality. More than likely a gay couple would not be able to adopt especially if they were not married. People act like a homosexual couple raising a child will give it a disease or somehow make them gay too. It’s not illegal to be gay and certainly not illegal to be loved by gay people either. Just because people are different or love different doesn’t mean they can’t raise a healthy child just like anyone else. Children in need of a good home would much rather have gay parents than none at all.
Public display of affection seems like not such a big idea until you see two guys or girls holding hands or kissing. It’s frowned upon just like it would have been in the 1800’s to see people of color showing public display of affection. It’s sad that everyone feels like they should have control over other peoples life or judge the by something so small like color back then, or sexual orientation today.
People always claim that they’re a homophobic so they don’t associate with homosexual people. Nobody is born a homophobic. It’s something that we let society indent in our children’s minds at a young age. Imagine if gay marriage became legal, society might change their minds and children may grow up to be less judgmental. The rate of bullying would go down and there would be less suicides. What people don’t see is that our law is contributing to much more than we think.
There is no dating law in America so it’s not illegal to date someone of the same sex but you can’t marry them. Either way it’s still a relationship with the same type of love. The law isn’t saving anyone from being harmed, it’s not helping lessen crimes or making for better lives for anyone, it’s only making things worse.
I hope that one day this will all be overlooked, people will be more equal or have equal rights and life will be better.

If I Could Change the World
What if the answer to changing the world is an answer simpler than we realize?
Maybe, being a leader is the first step to changing the world because you must change others outlooks in a positive way. When you have a non-judgmental, positive attitude you attract others and they want to be around you. Most people are too busy dealing with their own personal problems and rather be around people who can bring them up and help give them hope. Someone who is positive has a way of inspiring others and giving others hope because what do we really look for in life? People look for happiness. Well, if you have a lot of people that look up to you than that’s how to spark someone’s imagination.
News can be spread quickly through Internet, cell phones, books, or even through television shows. What if we could take advantage of these things to spread a positive message that might even change the world? Have pride in your morals and don’t be afraid to speak up, I can guarantee you’ll find a connection with other people if you just try. Be confident and get people to listen. Using any kind of social media, gives you the chance to use your voice or just simply having a deep conversation with someone can be ways to get your word out. There is no better way to change the world than to get everyone to speak their part with confidence.
Homelessness is a big issue because it’s one of the hardest lifestyles around and if we could just pick up those who are homeless than it could just give everyone hope. If there is a way I can help out than I hope that others will take action too. Saying that you care is one thing but to actually take action and maybe change someone’s life is another. If we have the opportunity to work in soup kitchens, help the community, take a part in food drives or donate to special causes than why don’t we? The homeless aren’t the only ones who need picking up either. If we just work on bringing up one person at a time than I believe that eventually the world can start to have a more positive outlook on life. A positive life has to be a start.
If I can make an effort I hope to inspire others to do the same. Maybe it starts with this simple Essay.
