Question

I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea for this essay prompt? Describe a situation in which you have made a direct impact on the life of someone else. I just have no idea where to start or write about...

Answer 1

The assignment is to write about a situation YOU were in. I have no idea who you associate with or what you do with any of those people. Did you ever play a practical joke on a sibling? Introduce a buddy to a game he had not yet played but found to be a lot of fun? I have no idea. It doesn't have to be a world-shattering thing, just something that had even a temporary influence in someone's life. Did you ever say or do something that unintentionally hurt someone's feelings? I doubt you ever saved a drowning man, most of us have never done something that dramatic, but we do influence others as we go about our day to day activities. You'll have to think of something.
