“Finding the Simon’s”

“Finding the Simon’s” In Lord of the Flies, by William Golding a quote that stuck with me is “”Maybe there is a beast...maybe it’s only us.” (Golding, 81). I see people in this book caught up in their ego and selfish needs for power; but then there was Simon. The person that went unnoticed even though he was very important to society. When reading Lord of The Flies, I have noticed how one person can be the holding foundation without even others realizing. In this personal project, I want to highlight the benevolent people in my community. The foundation. Capturing the good in my community that goes unseen by others. I want my community to find their Simon even when surrounded by darkness. I want to thank everyone that was apart of my journey and project.
