what would you do if you could change the world ?

written by Maria Beltran (3rd grade), who was awarded the Grand Prize in the student essay competition organised by the US Congress.

" If I could change the world, I would change it by doing something to stop all the violence, because violence is destroying the world. I would like to have a better place to live.
I wish everybody would help each other and I wish there was no fighting and on killing. I wish I could change drugs for food, because a lot of children are hungry. I would help the homeless because they don't have any food ,water or homes to live.

If people stopped somking they could have a better life for themselves . Because smoking can make you sick. I wish children would listen to their parents and their teachers and respect them so they can have the best information of what is the best for everybody.
I wish I could stop all the wars. I wish for a peaceful place to live, with no wars, without drugs, only peace and love for everybody in the whole world. I am glad when people are nice to each other.

If I could change the world, these are the things I would do."
