My Sister's Keeper

     If I was Judge DeSalvo I would rule in Anna's favor for the trial because I believe that everyone has a voice and has rights to their life. I think it was wrong throughout the book how Anna was just used to save her sister it just didn't sit well with me. I believe that you decide whether you want to donate blood or any type organ. Anna has the right to use her body for what she wants and of she doesn't want to donate a kidney to Kate. Sara as a mother and a lawyer is only looking out for Kate in the situation she really doesn't care what Anna thinks or feels. In my opinion she is a terrible lawyer, she is too attached to this situation for her to make good lawyer decisions. Campbell Alexander is Anna's lawyer. He is a complicated hurt man hiding behind his career from his real feelings.

For Love or Science?

       Sometimes in life things don't go as planned. What if you had a child and they had a disease that could kill them if they weren't treated. Now there are ways for parents to save their children, they now can some what design their next child. Many times deigning a baby can seem wrong, but if the parents planned on having a second child why not make a baby that could save their other kids life. I don't think this is totally wrong unless the parents just deign the baby to save their first child and don't love the second child the same. For love or for science? It should be for love and if it's not learn what a parent truly is.

Is the Holocaust real?

     If someone said to me that they didn't think the Holocaust existed I think I would respond something like this. I would ask that person what did they think happened to the millions of Jews that went missing. Does that person think that the remains of the camps are. But why would someone make up such a horrible thing. There are pictures and artifacts and evidence that the Holocaust happened. How could someone deny that fact that this didn't exist when there is many survivors with all the same story. Do you think all the Jews got together and made up the Holocaust. Why and how did all those Jews die if they weren't murdered. The Holocaust is a big part of history and it shouldn't be ignored.

The Holocaust

    During the Holocaust there were many inhumane things going on, Jews were killed because of stereotypes. Many times the people were just taken from their homes and tortured then eventually killed. The Germans had no respect for people of different religions, children. or people with disabilities. How could someone just kill innocent people without feeling any remorse. I'm not just saying that only the people who killed the Jews were wrong but also the other people who sat back knowing what was going on and refused to acknowledge what was happening. They use the line that they weren't the ones getting killed and they weren't going to risk their lives to help others. Those people were just as guilty of killing the Jews as the Germans who did the crime.
    I would think someone would rather want to die for a cause then die a coward. To many people in that day overlooked the Holocaust  but now it is known as one of the cruelest crimes committed in history. Think about all the lost innocent lives that could have been you or your family, would you have wanted someone to help you?

Pay Attention. Be Astonished.

   The last thing I was astonished by was the level of ignorance in young adults. There are people who just don't care about themselves or the people around them. They think that everything should come easily to them, that they shouldn't have to work hard to receive a reward. A lot of young adults know what is right but choose to do the wrong thing just because they can. I would think that people would want to better themselves instead of ruin their lives. If every person would make decisions that were good for themselves instead of trying to impress people the world would be a better place. I wish people would just wake up and see that not all the opinions of other people matter. Do people see what they look like when all they try to do is be like everyone else. Pay attention the decisions you make now could affect your life forever.

A New Law.

      If I was to create a new law that would become active immediately, it would have to make abortion illegal. I would make abortion illegal because I feel that if someone gets pregnant they should be responsible for the consequences of their actions. I feel that it's murder to kill an unborn child no matter how far along a person is in their pregnancy. I feel that if a person doesn't want their unborn child they should go through with their pregnancy then give the baby up for adoption. There are many people in the world would love to have kids but they can't, by making abortion illegal it would make it so more people would be happy. There would be less babies killed and it would put more children in loving homes. I also think that this would stop all the arguments about this topic. I feel this would be a great new law to add, even though there would be some people who wouldn't agree. I also know some people believe in abortion because if someone gets raped, but I still believe that abortion is wrong no matter what happened to start a pregnancy. It's still wrong to take an innocent life.

To Believe Again..

    There are many things that I believe in and many thing that I used to believe. A lot of things that I believed when I was younger slowly started not to believe in anymore. Things like Santa Clause and The Tooth Fairy. If there was one thing I wish I could believe in again it would be believing that people could fly. I think that believing something that crazy kind of makes people think that they can believe in anything, that anything is possible. I think that believing people can fly widens your thinking like maybe there is someone out there that can but  they keep it a secret. I think that believing something can help change your way of thinking forever.
