Relevance

Being able to find relevance in life determines how successful we become. Our education, social life, morals, and even entertainment have different levels of importance in our lives.    “Chapter 9 of the St. Martin’s Guide to Writing”, talks about choosing a topic that is related to your audience.  In addition, it says that you should be able to make connections to the things that you are writing about. When doing anything in life you will more likely to succeed if you’re passionate.  If you keep in mind the big picture of why you do the things you do, you will lead a more purposeful life.  For my second essay, I choose hunger in America. I choose that topic because I care about other people. In addition, I have allot of experience working with the homeless, hungry and drug addicted. I choose a topic that I am passionate about.  Moreover, it is something that is relevant.  There are hungry people everywhere.  My contribution to this cause matters because I can not only write about it, but I can also do something about it.
