Hey i need help on my essay for english. i need to make it a 3 min speech please help me edit and add some more to it. i cant think of anything else.. I'm writing the speech on this quote below. i have to explain the quote and relate to our daily life. i could talk about anything that would relate to the quote please help me with this I don�t wish to be everything to everyone but I would like to be something to someone- Steven Javan Jones Everyone at some point in their lives wants to know that they have a purpose in life. But what exactly are we living for? Why are we living? Some say that we are living to be happy and have fun in our lives, some say that we are living to make money or to get ahead in the time we have, but I say that we are living for someone else. It�s not a matter of why were born or why we are alive. It�s a matter of �whom we are living for� Humans don�t really want to be the most important things to everyone but we at least want to know that we are wanted or needed by one or another. Most people in the world are just selfish at some point and we seek love or friendship for that feeling of appreciation, while one seeks for such things, there are others who can�t fulfill the needs of others. You cannot always be there for everyone because people these days are having enough trouble trying to be there for one person that they truly love.

That looks more like a 20 second speech.

Just explain everything and use big words to stretch it out.

Take a huge breath in between every word and you might get 3 minutes. P.s: My money please

Try adding some adjectives and commas (when you speak) and speak at a slow steady pace, you might even double your time from 30 seconds to 1m For you guys saying mesos plz...check your world first...xD

LOL, you really expected this to be a 3 min speech? why don't you actually analyze the quote by adding some details in why what you are saying is true?

idc about the money, but this sounds like a speech thing... (do like a 5 min speech in 2 mins prep) first: comprehend what he is saying; to me= "i dont need to be what everyone wants me to be, i jsut need to be who i am for someone" 2nd: relate to it; how is this affecting ur life? people? etc.. 3rd: intro(thesis in the end), relation, conclusion (must have ur thesis) idk how ur speech has to be.. but thats what i think it should be ^ ; ps. sounds like love to me o.o" or role model to this "someone"

try using more direct nouns instead of someone. instead us people or we as human beings. fix punctuation and gramatical errors, i would suggest giving support of your analysis, a life experience or anecdote in history. in addition, could use some lengthening. also make topic sentnces and point more concise, its a bit too broad...other than that love ur creativity and perspective and the quote
