I truly believe god has set a path for us to follow, a reason for us to be here. Sure, we might not all be put on this earth to be a hero like Martin Luther King, or to be famous like Marilyn Monroe, but we are all here for a reason, and whether you know it or not, we all change the world, even if it is in the smallest way.

I know one thing, my Uncle was sure put here for a reason, or thats at least what I found out a few days ago. See, my brother and I were at a swimming pool, having fun and bouncing around with our cousin, Jordan. Close by watching us was my grandmother and uncle. While my cousin and I swam away from my brother, who is six, he tried to follow us. He soon reached the deep end of the pool, and began to drown. My cousin and I were to far away to hear the splash, but my brother was under for a few seconds before my uncle and grandmother realized what was going on. Clothes and all, he jumped in after my brother, and thank god he did.

See, even though we dont always know it, we change the world in the smallest way, and we all have a purpose, a path laid for us.
