The Courage To Take Action By Rosa Parks

We make decisions everyday, some of the decisions that we make only affect us some affect all the people around us. Some decisions won’t really matter by tomorrow but some of our decision will affect us for the rest of our lives.

We usually don’t see how important making a decision is, we usually make a decision so quick we don’t think of the outcome. We make decision now and as we grow up we realize how the decision we make while we are young weren’t a good idea. But when we are younger we don’t think about what will happen when we make a decision.

In the article “The Courage to take action” Rosa Parks’ decision affected her and the people around her and to this day her decision is still affecting people's lives. She changed many

lives by simply making the decision that she was not going to get up from the seat just because a white person didn’t have somewhere else to seat. That day when she refused to give up her seat she was threatened to be arrested she simply responded with “You may do that.” and she was arrested. Her decision led to boycotts, three hundred and eighty-five days after she refused to give her seat the boycotts ended . “Black men and women and children re-boarded the busses of montgomery” they were allowed to seat wherever they wanted.

In the poem “The Road Not Taken” the speaker makes a decision we don’t know if his actions will affect others or just him . The speaker thinks about the outcome and what will happen. He chose the road less traveled “Having perhaps the better claim because it was grassy and wanted wear.” He made the decision to go through a path that not many people have been trough. His actions may change the world just because he choose the road less traveled.
We should always take our time while making decisions because they could have far reaching effects. A single decision we make can affect many lives. We should always think about the outcome of our decision because one mistake we make can affect our whole lives and many others.
