Journal Entry 15: Leaving Everything Behind

Leaving important things behind is very painful to everyone. For example, if you have to leave a country permanently, you may have to leave everything you have right now. Back in centuries when there was slavery, people could hardly ever escape from their owners. For example, Harriet Tubman risked her own life and left every thing behind in order to save the slave. She was a free woman already, but she chose to leave her life behind and lead the slaves to a better life. If I were her, I would have done the same thing too, because I think sacrifice ourselves to make the others live a better life is worth the price.
