ReplyDelete"My Hopes and Dreams Poem"
ReplyDeleteI dream of a better world with more love,caring, and no pollution. The way I can help is by picking up my own trash and making people aware of how they can help too. This will also help the animals by stopping extinction. I hope that someday the world will be clean and stay clean!

Yes we can means alot to me. First of all, the three words are very strong. They hold something about working together. They say that if we work together we will be able to make this world a much better place. It also means anything is possible if you keep trying and you don't give up. Yes we can brings everything and everybody together. If the people in the community help by doing little things, little by little the city, state, country, continent, and even the world will be a better place. I know it does not seem that way, but deep down, that's what yes we can really means.
ReplyDeleteYes we can means anything is possible if we try hard enough.
ReplyDeleteYes we can means we can make things change.
Yes we can means we all need to work together as one.
Yes we can means everything is possible.
Yes We Can!
ReplyDeleteYes we can means we can all believe in ourselves. Yes we can are strong words. It means we can do it, just believe that we can. If we all work together in the community, we can make miracles happen. Be the change is similar to yes we can. If we all work together in the community toward the same goals, we can make anything happen together.

Yes we can means hope. It means you keep on going when you are about to give up. It is positive thinking and it means "I will" instead
ReplyDeleteof "I could". It also means change. Barack Obama is a symbol of change, he is the first black president. Change means new things. Yes
we can is being sure of yourself. If you want
change you have to work for it. If you don't work for it, chances are nothing will happen.
Change is a good thing. When Barack Obama says
"Yes we can." He is saying everything is about
to change.
Yes We Can

Working together. Barack Obama. America. Freedom. Those are only a few words that mean yes we can. When I hear yes we can, I feel warmth and victory. Friendship means alot to me. I'm thrilled that Obama won the election. Yes we can means that everyone counts.
Yes we can is a simble of Obama. It can also mean they beleav in somting. Obama says yes we can because he beleaves in people. When Obama says yes we can he also means he wants people to try new thing and beleaves they can do it.
ReplyDeleteTo me yes we can is like yes we can save the envirment, and yes we can help people that are hurt, and people that are poor. And we can do that together to CHANGE the world. I want to see a green world and to see that I have to be a part of that to help make it green. And I really hope Obama does what he promised. And at the end of yes we can it's yes we did.

ReplyDeleteIf you don't think you can jump over 2 logs think and say yes we can, and try maybe you can do it. If you think you can't do a hard math question say yes we can in your mind and you can maybe do it. If your in a contest and you have to climb over a 100 feet wall think say it in your mind and you can do it and you'll be very greatful.
Yes, we can means that if there is something you and your friends don't like and they say, "We can't do it," if you say that, you're wrong, and say, "Yes, we can." To say you can't do something, in a way, is limiting what you can do.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how old or how smart you are, you give it all you've got. No matter how old you are, you can still make change. That's what "Yes, we can" means to me.
"Yes We Can" means that we can do anything if we believe. We have to be focused to get a good education. We have try our hardest at whatever it is that we choose to do. We can not give up when things get hard. We have to strive for perfection in everything that we do and never be discouraged. It means that we have to stay in school and do things the right way even if we lose some friends along the way.
ReplyDelete"Yes We Can" Means yes we can be what we want to be,and no one can stop us from our dreams! In my dream I want to be a singer and no one can stop me. This quote affects me because if I want my dream I need this quote to make my dream come true.
ReplyDeleteyes we can!
ReplyDeletemakes me think about people in the world that
say NO WE CANT!I feel like I want to change that.People get
involved in pretty notty stuff.I hope you want to stop that too.
