Change is one of the most difficult things to do, it is always difficult to find what to change let alone how to change. However, one of the key messages a writer can convey to an audience is human compassion or empathy, to inspire action or change, and to bring about a deeper understanding of the world.

My Sister, My Heroine “Buck up Buttercup,” (Wood). Something I have been told my whole life, and have recently learned to appreciate. My sister, Tanya Jai Peterson Wood, has said to me to “Buck up Buttercup” many times under a vast variety of circumstances, to the point where I say it to others, and think it even when TJ is not around. TJ has made the biggest difference in my life, and is my heroine. I chose TJ to be my heroine because she is the most real to me; she has most changed my life and

understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen” (Elisabeth Kubler-Ross).

Obviously, that person was not Aristotle (unless the entirety of Nichomachean Ethics utilizes a tone of obfuscated sarcasm typically reserved for internet forums or pretentious asides) as he posits happiness as the ultimate human end, and contemplation the best way of achieving it.

Imagine living in a world where differences are celebrated and diversity can be seen everywhere you go. The world would be a place where you would not have to be afraid to hide who you choose to become, your opinions will not be casted aside despite it’s not being what majority agreed upon, and society would simply just be accepting and loving.
