“Our job is to make this community successful, economically,” Savell said. “Our job is literally... Someone comes to us, they may have problems and so we work with them, write or help do whatever they need to do. Our interest isn’t to decline or to sit back and be the big dog and scare anybody off.

Why at such a young age did I ask for help? If I asked for help, then I must have known what help is. Most of us know what help it, may it be because we’ve experienced help, know the definition, or our parents taught us what help is, but what is help really? It is an act of obtaining aid from someone else, or giving aid to someone else. This definition is in fact my definition of help, created from what I’ve experienced, and seen in my lifetime. Although I have an idea of what help is, my definition is not what I am asking. What I ask is, what does help do? Most times, help is used in order to complete a task, answer a question, or find a resolution to a problem. This means that we request help in order to achieve something which we could not achieve. Now, what does it mean when we achieve something?

Alice Walker makes a great argument against smoking in her short essay, “My Daughter Smokes”, by sharing with the reader a personal experience that she had concerning cigarette smoking. She describes what happened to her father because he was a smoker for most of his life. Walker talks about what happened to his appearance and his health because of smoking. She also makes a point in showing how society and Hollywood make smoking out to be attractive. Walker wrote this essay against smoking for one purpose, to try to get her daughter to stop smoking so she wouldn’t have to go through what her grandfather did. I agree with Walker’s argument against smoking, there are no benefits to smoking; everything associated with smoking is harmful. While Walker does talk about a few of the health affects associated with smoking, she doesn’t go into much detail about them.

Smoking kills every year, more than the number of deaths from car accidents, drugs, alcohol, AIDS and fire accidents combined together. The dangers of smoking are that damaging does not occur immediately, but after a long time. Moreover, not limited to the smoker, it affects others who are around him!

I often think to myself “ what more can I do to help?”. I never feel like what I do is enough. And I think I know why, when I approach people most of them never reject my help. But every so often I encounter someone who dose. And most of the time I don't want to bother them so I let them be. But when I think about it I was once in their place. I would think that asking for help is a sign of weakness, but in reality asking for help is the bravest thing a person can do. Admitting that you need help and you cant do it on your own helps you grow as a person. And from now on when I encounter those people that tend to say “no I do not need your help” I will try my best to help them anyway, even if they don't want it, I know they need it.
