Good Over Bad

In her diary, Anne Frank wrote that she believed “most people are good.” Do you agree with Anne? If so, why, and if not, why not? (Echoes and Reflections) I do agree with Anne, most people are good. In a time of terror, or even just like this week the Boston Marathon bombing, even though there are people who caused the terror, there were more people helping out. The good over takes the bad in this world, that’s how I think of things, instead of the negative, always think of the positive outcomes in tragedies. Especially in the Holocaust, although we lost 11 million people, we gained knowledge, stories, and survivors. Countries and people gained strength from the bad experiences. They give us strength by expressing the message that it does get better. We’ve seen the survival stories, how they got through the struggle, and it gives us strength to realize that we can too. So yes, there are bad people out there, but Anne Frank had a point - most people are truly good, which can prove to have the biggest impact on our world.
