REFLECTION

Guillermo Alberto Piedra Reyes

21

I believe that being an angel means helping someone out in the moment. We are all dependent on someone, and we all depend on many people each day. There is always someone you can reach out to and make feel better, because no one is perfect. I believe there is good in everybody, and I believe that helping others can make you an angel.

I have a friend who suffers from depression and anxiety and has drug problems. I have always been there for her, even back in high school when she was bullied. In high school, I wasn’ t considered a“ popular kid.” I would mostly hang out with people like her, who were bullied, and I was bullied myself. But in a way, that experience has allowed me to be an angel to her, because I know how it feels.
