Aligning Text
<p align=left> aligns a paragraph to the left <p align=right> aligns a paragraph to the right <p align=center> centers a paragraph
Alignment attributes can be added to the <p> tag to align the text in a paragraph to the left, right or center (though large chunks of text are rarely aligned right or center).
So if you were to write this in your HTML doc:
<p align=left>I fear my bathroom window. It opens to an airshaft, and when it's hot outside I leave it open. Unfortunately, if it's hot enough for me to open the bathroom window, it is also usually hot enough for my neighbors to open their bathroom windows. <p align=center>I can hear everything. I can hear them argue, and I can hear them flush the toilet. The heat is bad enough; I don't need to know whether or not Elaine upstairs thinks Jeremy should shave his goatee. <p align=right>When I moved into the bigger, cheaper apartment next door, I couldn't shake the memory of the wild summer parties I'd overheard. It took me four weeks to even <i>think</i> about using the bathtub. I scoured it until it gleamed, showered, and attempted to sleep. I couldn't. So I asked that it be replaced.
You might consider moving. Oh, and your page would appear like this:

Of course, you can use paragraph tags for text that's shorter than a full-on paragraph. For instance, you may want to center some words, like so:
<p align=center>If someone offers you <p align=center>a breath mint, <p align=center>take it.
They'll appear like this:
If someone offers you
a breath mint,
take it.
