Memorial Day

Memorial Day also known as an American Holiday, is observed on the last day of May. This day is the day we honor our great men and women who died while serving in the U.S military. The year it became a holiday was 1971.

Memorial Day is on the last Monday of every May, so it would be May 30.

We can show our honor by respecting and being thankful to those who risk our lives for us. We can go to speeches where they recognize the soldiers. In some places around the world they host parades. Some people even have parties or host barbecues.

What I found interesting about Memorial Day is that it unofficially marks the start of summer.

We might not do anything but maybe we will have a barbecue.

Well I feel that this holiday is a great holiday. I’m glad that the soldiers have some special  holiday. A special holiday that honors them. I’m glad for all that they do for us. They risk their lives for other people. I’d say that joining the army takes guts. And I am very thankful for all that they do.  

                  

Eight Great Reasons To Tell The Truth

-Barbara A. Lewis

1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There’s less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict
2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished
3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying
5. Other people trust you you more when you tell the truth.
6. You don’t have to tell more lies to keep your story straight.
7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.

Well I think that this whole quote is true. Being very honest is important but remember people do have feelings. Some people may not get offended by what you tell them about their outfit. There’s of course other people who would argue about you and your opinions. Though I would still tell the truth whether a person likes it or not. I would want people to earn my trust. I would want others to learn that telling lies is bad.

Yoga Therapist

A yoga therapist is a person who would use yoga to help people relax or help people with any physical and emotional issues or any specific health problem.

Yoga therapist earn about $36,900-$66,530 dollars a year.

The education needed to become a yoga therapist is at least studying anatomy and physiology in both health and various disease states.

The demand for a yoga therapist is unknown as the job is barely new.

Reflection: I don’t think I would want to become one due to the job being new and all.

“If I’ve got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed.”

-Dan Dierdorf

This quote is correct. When you do things right you will succeed. When you do things wrong, you’ll fail. If the teacher tells you to write an essay, you better do it in order to pass her class and succeed. Now if you don’t do it, then your grade will drop and you won’t pass her class. Now I think what he means by correct goals is by goals that are good. Such as “ having good grades” or “learning how to play the piano”. Incorrect goals would be something like: “ killing ____” or “ stealing ____”s money”. If you do get correct and right goals then you should push your limits in order to achieve them.

Wellness Specialist

Wellness Specialists are people who train and support people on any of their health goals. These people usually work in schools, local governments, companies and other organizations. Their main goal is to educate people on their health. To improve daily choices, prevent illnesses or any local resources. These people usually speak a lot. As they would hold seminars, etc.

The amount of money they earn is about $49,480 dollars a year. They earn $15.77 dollars every hour.

To become a wellness specialist you must have a degree related to nursing, fitness or sports medicine. Other than that, there’s no specific requirements needed for this job.

The demand for this job is at 37%.

Reflection: I wouldn’t want to be one. The reason why is because these specialists tend to talk a lot to the public. I really don’t like to talking to the public as I feel I would mess up a lot.

“The most important thing you’ll ever have is good values.”

-Dennis Prager

Reflection: What Dennis said is good. Good values are indeed a good thing for us to have. A good value is like choosing the right. Or being loyal to somebody. Also serving others is a good value. Basically by doing good things you are doing another good value. Being a good person is a very important thing. More people will come to you for advice. You would be a good idol. Some examples of having a good value is helping others. You can help homeless people by giving them at least one dollar or you can help find a lost dog. You can also be a good listener and listen to your friend's troubles. Being open minded is another example. To not judge others for who they are, and just accept them for being them.

Veterinarian

A veterinarian is a person who works on the health of animals. They diagnose, treat and research medical conditions of the animal.

The education needed for this job is at least a Doctoral or Professional Degree.

The demand for this job is at 9%, I find it very low from other jobs.

Reflection: Yes, I think I would like to become a veterinarian because I really love animals. They can be our companions and can make us the happiest person alive. And in return we should help them back.
