Love Is ...

     Love. One word, four letters, and a million different forms. It's a condition in which a person's happiness is essential to your own. There are many different forms - friends, family, romantically inclined, and even something as simple as hobbies and interests. I think the most common are friends and family, so I'm going to explain what friends and family do when they love you.

      They'll tell you the truth, even if it hurts upfront. When you need to talk about something, they'll be there to listen and give you thought out advice. If someone's giving you trouble, they'll help you out. Pointing you in the right direction isn't always easy, but they'll do it. They care for you, and they're always there for you. Friends that love always know how to show that they care, and that's what makes them special.

Charlotte's Web

4 - In the beginning of Charlotte's Web, Fern saves Wilbur from death. Would you have saved Wilbur, too? Tell about a time when you stood up for someone smaller than you.

     I personally would've saved Wilbur. I love animals, and I would not allow my dad to kill a poor, innocent animal because it was the runt of a litter. If I lived on a farm at all, it would be a dairy one so I wouldn't have to put up with killing animals. It is such a sad thing when a farmer has to murder an animal because they cannot afford it, or it's the runt, or any other reason. To my friends, I consider myself the mother. I take care of them better than I take care of myself. If it's freezing cold, I'll give them my jacket so that they're warmer than I am. I think it's kind of  a caring trait that I've picked up throughout the years. I enjoy having people know that they can come to me if they need anything. So naturally, I've been in plenty of situations like this. An example would be when people talk about my friends. I don't care who it is, I stick up for them and tell them to knock it off. I've done this a lot recently, and I'm glad the break kind of settled it. It will probably start happening more, but there's not a lot you can do. I just hope that there will be more chances for me to help in the future.
