Many people have made huge impacts on the world in the way people think, act and feel. This made choosing one person to write a profile on difficult.
Once of my choices is Marilyn Monroe. She was not just a great actress with a pretty face who did a few movies and didn’t hear much else from her. She was a troublemaker. She helped women see that they have rights and they can be self-confident and share their opinions. She made the world see it was ok to be bigger, not everyone needs to be a size two. She showed everyone that bigger is beautiful too. Another reason she was a troublemaker was because of her affair with JFK. Her life was very interesting and her death was no different. Marilyn Monroe made a large impact on the world.
Another person I was thinking about writing about is Gordon B. Hinckley. He was the prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints from 1995-2008. To me he was very much a truth-teller. While he was prophet of the church he helped the church to grow. He made the orders to build around 80 temples, the membership of the church grew significantly like it had never done before, and he helped make BYU and BYU-Idaho better schools. He focused on the youth in the church, he gave them the Be Attitudes to show and explain to them how to live a better life and be a better person. He met with people like Steven King and the president of the United States to answer questions about the church and help the world get a better understanding of what Mormons believe in.
I’m not too sure who else I might write on; I need to do a little more thinking. I’m most likely going to stick with Marilyn Monroe though. She led a very interesting life and didn’t care what others thought of her. That alone is something to admire.
