A wonderful country named Ethiopia located in Africa is being damaged and overthrown by people who are killing innocent people for no apparent reason. Lives have been lost, families have been worried and walking by foot to other countries. My mother and father both love their home very much. Not a day goes by where they don't think about their home or families. Our whole family dream is to go back to Ethiopia and make better changes -- changes for young children, adults, and elders so they can live a happier life more than ever. See the thing is, our country isn't peaceful or non-violent, but it is torn.
Since the beginning of the year in Washington, D.C., protests have been taken into action in some way. But the protests that have been occurring within the year have less action than we Ethiopians expected. As an adult, I feel it is my duty to be a part of the greater change in my country. So, when push comes to shove, you -- yes, you -- have to get through it no matter the obstacles. Not only in D.C. but other states have been taking action and protesting. The thing about protesting is, it usually doesn't work, knowing from experience of course. About a few years back, all of Ethiopia had an unexpected turn where everything changed for the worse. God has a way for all of this to go away, making Ethiopia whole again.
You know what's worth fighting for when you put your heart into it 100%. When I put my heart into something that is worth it, I do my best to find the better outcome. There are youth organizations all over the globe trying to find ways to make Ethiopia great again. Just because Ethiopia is being overthrown by bad people doesn't mean the hopes of others are gone. The spirit of Ethiopia still lives no matter if the country changed.
A country worth fighting for is something I love doing. An Interesting fact is, I want to become a social worker. My interest from the start is to help people. Seeing people all over the world care so much for such innocent people makes me so happy. A country worth fighting for can make a difference for us all. God doesn't put us through failure for no reason. He puts us through these obstacles for a reason, which I believe is an outstanding and wonderful thing. Again, a country worth fighting for is a country worth fighting for with God. I will never give up on a dream my whole family has wanted for so long.
