"Kindness is the essence of greatness"

                                                -Joseph B. Wirthlin

Reflection: What this quote is saying is that being kind is great. Doing nice things matter. Being kind also means you're great.

Example: An example of being kind is that you can help people doing their math homework. You can help your mom with anything like: helping her wash the dishes, or perhaps helping her babysit your little brother or little sister or maybe your baby cousin. You can also help someone else if they're being bullied. Helping others shows that you are indeed a kind person. And again being kind is what makes you a great person. Another way to be kind is by helping an elderly person with their grocery bags or to cross the street. You don't have to be just nice to humans, you can be nice to animals too. Just remember, being kind is what makes you great.

"If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it."

-Marcus Aurelius

Reflection: This quote is like every other quote we have been given. It repeats the same thing about being "nice" and being "the right person". You shouldn't do bad things. You shouldn't say bad things. That is all there is to this quote. 

Example: Just be good, do good things. Say good things. Be a good person. Live a good life. Don't spread rumors about another person because you dislike them, for it is "bad". Don't bully another kid because he/she is a nerd and likes math or doesn't enjoy what other's enjoy. Because it's mean, it's rude, and if you were in their position you wouldn't like that. Just be a good person by not saying anything bad or doing anything bad. Do all of this and you'll get a "great life".

Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

In November of 1621, after the Pilgrims' first corn harvest had been proven successful, Governor William had organized a feast and invited a group of Native Americans. This feast was the very first Thanksgiving and it had been for 3 days. In 1827, New York became one of the very first to celebrate this day. 

          

What am I thankful for?

My family

My dog 

My life

Having food 

Having a house

My education

My friends

Nothing

"Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing"

                                                              -Chick Moorman

Reflection: What this quote is saying is that it doesn't matter if you win or lose all that matters is that you tried your best and didn't cheat. This quote is also saying that you should always be fair.

Example: This quote doesn't have to always relate to sports. It can relate to tests too. Let's say that you want to ace the test but you didn't even study.You see that the kid next to you seems to be doing well so you decide to copy him. So the next day you guys receive your test back and you get an A. It can be good but it just doesn't feel like it huh? You weren't being fair with yourself. It's not right to copy off of people. You can't cheat your way to life. So having that A doesn't feel like anything and it shouldn't because you did something wrong. It shouldn't matter what grade you get, as long as you try and put your effort in it.

"1. Have the courage to say no.
 2. Have the courage to face the truth.
 3. Do the right because it is right. 
 These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity"
                                                                             -W. Clement Stone
Reflection: What this quote means is that these are ways you can have integrity in your life. You have to be honest and not always lie. You have to accept the truth no matter what. And you do the right because it is the right and nothing should change that.
Example: You should follow these steps so you can be a better person. If someone asks you to go and rob something you shouldn't do that. You should say no and no matter if the guy that told you was big and scary you shouldn't be afraid to tell him no. You must be brave to face the truth. If you cheat on a test and the teacher catches you, you shouldn't try to lie to her. Instead face the truth and tell her that you did cheat and face the consequences. You should do the right because it's the right. If a boy falls down you shouldn't be laughing with others and making fun of him. You should go up to him and help him because that's the right thing to do. It doesn't matter if they tease you and call you "Miss goody goody" or "Mr. nice guy" you do what's right for you.

       We can show honor in Veterans Day by….

•Flying a flag correctly

• Helping veteran families

   

      I have no special interests to share about this holiday.

     Well I’d like to thank the soldiers for helping us by fighting for our freedom. Without them we wouldn’t be able to live a happy and calm life. They died saving us and many of us appreciate that. Without them fighting probably our world wouldn’t be as safe. I mean it isn’t that safe but at least they made it a bit much safer. Without soldiers we would have so many problems in this world. I appreciate what they have done. 

"He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed"
                                                     -Proverbs 13:20
Reflection: What this quote means is that if you hang out with people who actually think before they do something that you'll eventually follow their thinking. But, if you hang out with people who don't even think first before doing something you'll eventually get use to them doing that and you'll follow their steps. The people who you hang out with depend on what your thinking will be.
Example: Ruby was a person who was very smart and knew what she was doing. She had many multiple of friends. Some were smart people who studied and helped others. They were nice and help their parents without any complain. But, Ruby had friends who would also disobey their parents and would go out and party all night. Ruby of course knew that having friends that party all the time was a bad idea so she didn't hang out with them. She hanged out with the friends that used their brains instead of the others who just didn't care.

                                         

                   

"The best recreation is to do good" 
                                                                                  -William Penn
Reflection: What this quote means is that the best way to re create yourself is by doing something good or by simply being good. You should do good things like studying or helping your parents with work in the house. You should also try to change the way you think. That's if you have a very negative mind. You also shouldn't give attitude to nobody.
Example: Hayle was a little girl who always did bad things. Her parents always tried to help her change but Hayle would not listen. Now a few years later, Hayle has some bad records. Of course she can still change them since she's still small. What Hayle did was that she decided not to do bad things with her friends and she decided to actually study. She eventually did bring her grades up and completely changed herself. From being a very bad child she became a smart nice girl.

"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it." 
                                                              -William Penn
Reflection: No matter what happens no matter what everyone does, you shouldn't do what others do. Unless if it's something good but other wise you shouldn't do bad things. No matter if the whole city is smoking, or killing or whatever else is considered bad to mankind, you shouldn't do it. It doesn't matter if the cool kids are smoking and drinking beer and doing things that is meant for older and much matured people, you shouldn't do it just because you want to fit in or just to be cool.
Example: Bell was a young girl who has  dreamed to be popular. She had began to noticed that other people who were considered cool had began to do awful things. One time Bell's friend had offer her a can of beer and told her to chug it.Bell thought it was the best way to fit in so she did what her friend told her.Of course Bell got what she wanted "to be popular". But of course later on in the future she's in jail for being caught selling drugs. So just because the "cool kids" do it you shouldn't do it to fit in with them.
