This is one topic I think about a lot, how I’ve changed or as I like to put it, bettered myself. I like talking about this because in the past couple of years I have noticed a huge change in myself. Over this summer is when I’ve really just realized it. Usually when it comes to writing assignments in an English class I have a hard time figuring out what to start it with or what to even say at all, that’s what I love about writing things I’m interested in or can relate to; I can write about it with lots of though and interest.

But every time he hurt me I learned a little something new and helped him a little more. I learned a lot about boys and their game but I also learned a big thing, I learned to love myself! I also learned that love, no matter what kind of love, is real when you learn to not want just yourself to be happy, but when you really just want the other person to be happy and know help them love their self. I’ve learned to also love like Jesus does and it made me really understand Gods love. Some of this story may sound bad and make me look ignorant but has taught me so much and made me the person I am today. Also it showed me that people really can change even if you can’t change them you can help. My next story involves losing a friend but also making
