Persuasive writing -Its okay to be different

Being different is okay-Persuasive writing

my opinion everyone should be allowed to be different and not be put down because of their unique features.

My most important reason is if everyone was exactly the same the world would be boring.For example there would be no fun in the world because if you were to tell someone a joke they would already know the answer to it.It would be boring because when you have your own look it makes you proud to be yourself but when you have the same look as everyone else you might feel like it doesnt really matter and lose a passion.It would also be boring because everyone would get the same grades and there would be no surprises in the world because everyone would be doing the same thing.In my opinion I think that the world is funner different.

I think that it's fun to be different.For example when you travel the world you get to meet different kinds of people from places like Samoa or Tonga or even America.When everyone has different opinions and perspectives about things it makes you debate others and learn more about the subject.Another example of this is when youŕe competing in the olympics everyone has a different talent and different strengths, if we were all the same we wouldn't even have the olympics because everyone would come a tie.

My third and final reason is when you're different it makes you unique and unique is a good thing.For example being unique gives you your own sense of style and gives you the freedom to be who you want to be.When you're unique it means you're one of a kind and that's pretty awesome knowing that youŕe the only you you will ever meet.Another example is being different and being who you want to be attracts people that are similar to you and that could be great friends in the future.

I strongly believe that being different is a great thing because being different makes you unique and being unique is awesome.

The child-Narrative story




The child.


It was a cold dark night in London,England, Tuesday the 16th of February 1991.There was a tall white skinny woman, She had mental problems due to abuse from her father she got as a child.The woman had a 2 year old daughter that she loved dearly with all of her heart but one day some people from the township thought that her daughter should be taken away from her due to her mental problems but the mother did not want her child to be taken to the orphanage because they treated their children horrendously there.
So the mother left the child at a doorstep like every other mother or father would to abandon their child but as she left the child awoke and followed the mother until she could not see her anymore.The young child fell to the ground and started to cry, little did she know she was right
outside the house her mother and father lived in.After a while the young child stopped crying and realized where she was.But something wasn't right, something was off about the house, the young girl slowly crawled into the house.There was a note on the ground with blood and tears smeared on the edge. “Dear Margaret, I'm so dearly sorry but I can not cope with your needs.You have become too much for me to handle.I have gone away and I am never coming back, look after our daughter. Love Scott,” The young girl thought to herself “I don't know what any of this means all I know are the names Margaret and Scott.My parents would call eachother those things all the time.I wonder what they mean”.The young child crawled up the narrow creaky stairs and into the bathroom, and saw her mother.The young girl thought to herself “Oh mummy is trying to learn to fly again”. The tall skinny woman was hanging from the ceiling with the rope tied around her neck.”I'll try find daddy,mummy stay right here don't go anywhere, I'll be right back” said the young girl.The young girl slowly crawled into her room where she found her stuffed rabbit, “His name was Carrot but for some reason on the side of Carrot was a name it said “Sophia” I think that's my name”Said Sophia.Sophia dragged her stuffed rabbit with her as she slowly crawled down the stairs into the kitchen.”DADDY!”Sophia yelled.No reply.”He masnt be home,well im just going to have a sleep” thought Sophia.Sophia slowly crawled up the stairs and back into her room and jumped into bed and slowly fell asleep.

Suddenly, young Sophia awoke to a cold breeze coming from the tall narrow doorway.She jumped out of her bed and started to follow the wind down into the living room.It was silent and the wind stopped blowing.It was just cold and silent.Suddenly a bang comingfrom the ground.Sophia almost had a heart attack but that wasnt what she was worried about. “Where did that come from?” thought young Sophia to herself.She layed down on the cold wooden floors and waited for the next bang.BANG!.Sophia moved closer to the bang, then again.BANG!.Then again Sophia moved closer.BANG!But this time Sophia moved closer and CRASH!She fell through the floor but she didn't fall onto the ground, something caught her.A tall white skinny figure.Sophia opened her eyes and looked at the figure and smiled.Somehow the figure was familiar to little Sophia.The spirit of some kind carried her down into the basement that was opened by Sophia and no one saw her again until years later, 25 years later to be exact.
