Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect

My sister's keeper
If I was Judge DeSalvo, I would have given Anna the right to her own body, but also appointed a responsible adult as the care taker of her medical power of attorney until the age of eighteen. I would do this because even though she is young, Anna has the right to her body. Even if she want to give her sister a kidney, she should have the right to say she wants to, rather than be forced to. Campbell probably sees Sara as a mother, who did not do the right thing. She may have been keeping Kate alive, but never had much concern for Anna and how the donations were affecting her. As a lawyer however, Campbell probably thought Sara was doing the right thing because she was doing what she thought was right.

"I don't believe in the Holocaust"
"Are you stupid? How can you honestly say you don't believe in the holocaust? Have you never heard of Anne Frank? Have you ever watched interviews with Holocaust survivors? Have you ever seen pictures of the dead bodies from the camp? I don't think that made all of those things up just for some sympathy. Where is there any proof to disprove the holocaust happened? That is like saying WWII never happened. There is so much proof and witnesses and stories that there is no way that it "didn't happen." The Germans admit it happened, The American solders who saved the prisoners admit it happened, and the Jews admit it happened, so why is it even a question if it did? Why are there still stubborn people insisting on arguing with everything just because they don't want to admit how messed up the Nazi were and what they did to the Jews. 6 million people were wrongfully and cruelly killed in the Holocaust and to say it never happened is disrespectful and ignorant."

The Holocaust
It seems like every year in school we learn about the holocaust, about what lives were like in the concentration camps, about the Nazi and about the hate and discrimination going on in certain countries at the time. But to me, it seems like no one is ever going to fully understand and be able comprehend the events of WWII unless you were there. Every year they give us statistics of who all died and was involved but when I hear those things, they're just numbers to me. I think of one person's life going living in a concentration camp, one life living in hiding, or one life staring at the faces of sick and dieing people and not caring about them at all simply because of what they look like or what they believe in and it's hard to wrap my head around that. So for us to understand what it really means for millions of people to have gone threw that, I don't think we'll ever understand. Each person who lived in that time period has a story lost in the years that have gone by since then, and there is no way they will all ever be known, and it seems to me like that is the saddest part about the war.

my sister:
to be honest, I don't understand ether of my parents very well. However, my older sister I understand and connect with very well. She always lets me know that she is there for and I know I can ask her about anything.

my law:
If I could make a new law it would be to legalize marijuana. I believe that marijuana is not hamrful, and only gives you good effects. First of all, Marijuana helps many things just like a depressent. It helps headaches, soothes you and eases your mind. Marijuana is not only to get 'high', but it also can help you in many ways. Alcohol is worse then Marijuana in many ways. Alcohol messes up your liver, addicting, changes vision, able to talk, and able to function. This is over all worse then Marijuana. Many people have died because of Alcohol consumption and nobody has ever died from Marijuana.
