paragraph of the rainforest

The rainforest, the beautiful vegetated jungle of the earth. Lets start with the trees, smelling fresh and looking bright.. The light barely streams through the leaves, but that’s not the only thing going on with the leaves, hear the soft rustling from the mild winds. Moving deeper into the forest we look for the waterfall. The smell of the springs of warm water and the running sounds. These are my favorite things about the rainforest and I plan on sharing them with you.

kindness is always the answer

Kindness is always the answer.
Kaelyn Rogers
Kindness is always the right decision when it comes to choices. Whether you are 8 or 80 being nice will make anyone feel better. Aesop once said No act of kindness, no matter how small is ever wasted. Being kind is always the way to go in life.
This quote reminds me of a time I was at school; my friend and I were in class when all of a sudden an announcement came that we all should report to the high school. We had no idea that we were about to go watch and encounter an emotional anti bullying assembly. We were visited by some people that taught us the dangers that bullying can do to people. It makes me think that you don’t know what someone is going through, so you shouldn’t judge. Also that if you say or does something to make someone feel better it might mean a lot to you but, it could mean the world to them.
Thinking, this makes me think of the book “A day no pigs would die” by Robert Newton Peck. In the first paragraph, Rob a 12 year old boy sees a cow in distress. The cow needs help, she is giving birth to two baby calves, too make matters worse she is choking and cannot breath. So he does a heroic thing and sticks his arm down the cow’s throat and pulls the item that is choking. By being kind and caring he saved an animal in need of help, because he is a good person.
Kindness is something everyone should be able to experience in their life time. Feelng good is always the right thing to do, because like Aesop said No act of kindness, no matter how small is ever wasted. Being nice is always making someone feel good in one way or the other, and is the reason I think being kind is always the right way to go in life.
