What If?
What if there isn't electricity? What if school stops? What if there isn't anymore clean water? What if more earthquakes and tsunami occurs? What if volcanoes erupt everyday? What if the moon comes closer and closer everyday? What if the world ENDS right now? Well in the book Life As We Knew It by Susan Pfeffer, is about a normal american family trying yo survive through a time of struggle and a time where people put them first instead of others. It is about a time where food is equal to golds and diamonds. And i think at the end of the book the most important thing will be each other and living instead of food because they would realize that living together is more better then living by yourself because when you are together you are stronger. In the beginning of the book people ran over each other for food, but never thought of the people who are in really in need for it, even thought everyone needs it, some people need it more then others.
In this book it there is a character Megan, who i think thought of other then her self because in the beginning of the book she gave away her lunch to people who couldn't eat a three meals a day like her. In the book Megan is a friend of Miranda { she is the narrator of the book }. Megan would always share her lunch with people in need, which is a good thing but other people only things about themselves and how they are going to provide themselves. i believe that people helps other people when people help people out in their time of struggles. So i think that at the end of the book Megan going to be in a good position. Megan believes that in god strongly. She believes that god is going to keep her alive. She is just way to dependent on god. God isn't going to save you when your in the risk of dying the people around you is and i think she needs to realize that because she is going to end up dying that way.
What i believe is that you need people, you can't be alone,by yourselves at a time like this. you need to be with people. you need to help people, then then they are going to be the ones who is going to help you in the future. I think instead of Miranda thinking of herself and how she is going to survive she should think of people who are in worse condition then she is in and help them.

This post made me think a lot about how I'm not that grateful of certain things. But I should be. I should be grateful to have all of my friends, eating 3 meals a day and everything. It made me feel like there are good people in the world. They will save you at times you need them. If you do good in the world, good will come to you. Life is beautiful. It's beautiful how people are there for each other all the time. I mean I can't imagine a world with hate and anger. It would destroy us all. I mean one person's hate can lead to another; like a chain affect. Your post have helped me feel like there are people in the world that will help and I should be grateful of everything. How do you think hate will affect the world? Do you think it will create a chain affect?
