You matter. You can make an impact on the world. I am an eleven year old girl and I am soon to make a change. Any state of being, any kind of being, you make an impact. Some people don't realize it and do troublesome things to the world because they didn't realize their actions could hurt. And the same people could have hidden, secret, tremendous abilities, talents, desires, and ideas when they don't even know the change that it all could bring.
There is a famous quote that has something to do with what I'm saying, actually it's saying exactly what I am but I can't think of the words or the person. But I always say the smallest things and the biggest things all have a major impact on the world- it's all fate. It's all lined out and the smallest thing works to bring that fate to life each moment.
My point is- you may not know anything about how this universe and spiritual world works, but take advantage of the fact that you are human. You may wonder like I do- are the nice people you befriend really truly nice? Is that their root personality and spirit? Or did something occur in their life that made them that way? And if so, wouldn't that make the cause the true nice thing? But how did that thing become good? You may wonder what a soul is and if it develops or as Socrates said, has doors that just have to open.
Just take advantage of the fact that you have a soul. Even though you don't know why happy things make you happy, why good things are really good, why war and sorrow always seems so terrible, whether or not terrible even is bad, you know that you feel good. And even though you might not improve the world by being happy and feeling good, and even though that feeling probably isn't happiness, it's just some illusion, enjoy life.
And let yourself know, each day, that when it comes to the big picture, you most likely have no important part, but in our little world that we have established on Earth, you can make a difference.
That was cute. (You're eleven? You're rather well spoken and literate o.O)
Eleven was the year my life started to suck.(Don't worry it's better now)
I wish I knew Socrates at eleven. Someone educated you well xD
I'm happy that you can have such a positive reflection on life!
I absolutely love life, and think love and happiness are such good things to strive for, although, it seems, the people that strive never get them.
The people that wait seem to be better off.
I hope you maintain that positive spirit forever!
Also, the formatting has gone really weird, but that could be this computer haha :L

Does taking advantage of being human and having a "soul" mean to live life to the fullest? It sounded like a pep talk that wasn't registering. I wasn't sure if you were only targeting one person, specifically, who might run across this piece one day or what. Why has no one left their comments? xoxo -Mark

This was pretty much for anyone who took interesting in reading it and if it inspired that one person or hundreds of people, I don't care, I just want the message to be out there. I'm sorry if it didn't stick with you very well.

First, I trust that what you say is something I can build off of in starting to accept that what you say is from the heart or just an essay for college to be written, and the second would be that if you were a girl..... it'd be a lot nicer to hear "advice" straight from the source, like in person. I just realized that without knowing if you are a guy or girl, that I wrote my "xoxo -Mark"!! lol .............. -Mark
