Does This Really Help?

“Every little bit counts,” –Unknown. This quote means a lot to me for many reasons, it helped me realize facts about life, it helped me into the right club, and it helps others. If you turn on your television anytime of the day you will see something happening in the world that is unfathomable. For example, the BP disaster or a young child being kidnapped. Young children being kidnapped is one of the more current things going on. When I first heard this quote, I realized how many things in this world are going wrong and how hard it is to help with it all! Yet this quote, “every little bit counts,” helps me to realize that putting posters up of that little girl/boy might help them get found ; going to schools and collecting things to help clean up the oil spill would help too. That is one of the reasons I am in BETA, because it is not just a club, it is a group of young citizens that want to help the world. No matter what, we will always know that whatever we do for our community will count. For example, recycling is a big one. You might think it doesn't do much for you to recycle one can, but that one can will help to make a new one. So, next time you are doing something for your community and you start to wonder if it means anything to anyone, think of this quote and its meaning.
