What Would Your Memorial Look Like?

Shelby Roskelly

If someone were to create a monument of my life, it would be about my kindness toward others.  It would show many acts of kindness.  These are examples:
Ever since I started Middle School, I always I saw this girl sitting by herself but I never did anything about it until the beginning of February. The first thing I did to try to get to know her was give her a Valentine's Day card/candy.  After that I would talk to and sit by her at lunch.  Sometimes I would smile at her in the hall.
Another example of kindness was when I was about 7 years old. My family and I were at one of our neighbor's houses because they were having a party there.  My little brother was only 4 and didn't quite know how to swim.  He was on the swimming pool's steps while my friend and I were racing across the swimming pool.  He decided to try and swim.  Since he couldn't swim he started to panic.  I quickly went over to him and picked him up out of the water.  After that he thanked me for helping him.

If someone were to memorialize me, I would want them to remember me by my willingness to help and support others.  Everybody needs their little rock, their base that keeps them grounded and not just floating away.  I would love to be remembered for helping orphans in Haiti find a home.  If they don't get a home, I would just be a piece of their base that loves them.

I would like my memorial to be of me holding hands with everyone so they know that I'm there for them.  I hope that people will understand this and support me.

If somebody made a monument of me, it might be about my love for my family.  I would rather be home with them than anywhere else.  They are the most important thing to me.

My family has helped me to be courageous, and I have had to stand up and defend my family from verbal assaults.  The thought of them gives me strength, and eventually I will do something worth making a monument out of because of my love for my family.  It would probably look like me, sitting with them under a tree.

If I were memorialized, it might have a scholar or historian.
