Did your past ever affect you or change who you are? Scrooge’s did and mine did also. The way I am today is because something affected me in my past. The point that affected me was in 5th grade, it was a bully nagging a kid. I told the bully to stop bullying the kid, but the bully didn’t. I knew the right thing to do was tell an adult, so I told a yard duty. The bully got in trouble and his victim said thanks to me. That day I realized the right thing to do is to speak up and if the bully doesn’t stop then you get an adult. This affected me because now I speak up for kids that are getting intimidated and if that doesn’t work then I get an adult.
