" Kindness is the essence of greatness" 
What this is saying is that without kindness you can't be great. Its like saying that you meet someone new and they don't show kindness like all they'll say would be like a simple hi or a smile at you but that shows you that there a nice person. If they were to introduce themselves and greet you in a kind way and start a conversation with you then thats a kindness and then you will think they are a kind person by the way they greeted you. Without greatness and kindness it would be bad because you wouldn't show kindness or say or do nice or great things and it would show that you are rude and a mean person.  Being kind is a great thing to do showing kindness is also a great thing to do and show, you will make new friends meet new people by being kind to them.

" Thanksgiving Week" 
What i did during my thanksgiving break was help around the house, hung out with friends, watched t.v, watched movies, and did my homework. I didn't really go out that much during the break because i would do my homework. I went to my friends house, went out and eat with my family, went to the mall and go outside with my friends. I didn't meet new people during the vacation. Some movies i watched were pixels, insurgent, the maze runner: the scorch trials, and paper towns. Some sports that i watched during the vacation was the FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid game. I watched the game with my dad i enjoyed watching the game because it was a good game. I guess some CTR experiences i did was doing my homework during the vacation. I didn't read any books during the break. Some homework i did was physiology homework and geometry homework. Other things i did during the break was watch friends and be with my cousin and her boyfriend and their baby which i had a really great and fun time being with them.

" If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it" 
--Marcus Aurelius--
What this is saying is that if something is not right don't do and if something is not true don't say it. If you do something that's not right then you are doing and choosing whats wrong. If you say something that;s not true then it is wrong because what you are saying is not true and its making you look bad because you are lying about something so therefore you are a lair.  For example if you say something thats not true to someone then they will believe you and then they will go tell other people and so on, then rumors start happening and then at the end they will all blame it on you because you were the one who said it first and the one who started it, then you will end up getting in trouble because you said something that wasn't true. Same thing goes for doing whats not right because if you don't do whats right then you eon't get in trouble because you didn't do in the first place. If you do whats not right then you will end up getting in trouble and having consequences.

" Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing."
--Chick Moorman--
When you do whats right, honorable and fair you are doing it right because you are doing what you need to be doing. Sometimes when you do the right, fair and honorable thing you are not winning or losing because your doing the right thing which doesn't make you lose or win.When you do the right thing and fair thing it doesn't mean you are winning it means that you are doing whats right and not whats wrong. For example finals week are coming up or you have this really important essay or project due and you procrastinate and wait till the last minute to do it or study, lets say you need to study for one class for you big final exam and you decide to cheat to pass the class then you aren't winning there because you weren't being fair or honest. Then for the next class you have to do an essay or a report on something interesting but you decide to go on the internet and find an essay or report on there and then you copy and paste it and turn it in with a couple of word changes and then you get a really good score and you pass the class but you don't say anything to the teacher because you got a really good score and you needed to pass that class, right at that moment you weren't winning nor you were losing because you weren't being honest, fair and you weren't doing the right thing.

1.) Have the courage to say no. 2.) Have the courage to face the truth. 3.) Do the right thing because it is right.
These three keys are saying that number one you need to have the courage to say no for example like you go out with your friends and there telling you to do something bad or try something rite in that moment you need to have the courage to say NO to them and choose the right thing. The second one is saying that you need to have the courage to face the truth. When you don't face the truth there are consequences to it. So for example lets say you didn't do your part in the group project and you make up an excuse, then later on your group and the teacher find out that you were lying. In that moment you are going to keep on lying but then you start realizing you need to say the truth because you'll get in more trouble if you keep on lying. The third one is saying always do the right thing because it is the right thing to do. Lets say one day your friends want to go do something bad and wrong and you tag along with them but while they are telling you what is going to happen you start thinking why are you doing what they want to do if it is the wrong thing to do, so as you were thinking you choose to do the right thing and not do it because it was wrong.

" Veterans Day" 
Veterans day is where you have a tribute to all the veterans in saying thank you for their work they have done during the wars.  Veterans day is celebrated on November 11. The purpose of veterans day is honor the veterans and thank them for their willingness they did for our country. It is important to show honor to veterans day because you are thanking the veterans for what they did to fight for our country, it is also important because we show them respect. There are many ways you can honor and respect a veteran. You can tell a veteran thank you for their service. You can let them tell you a story of what they been through in war and you can show respect to their families. I think veterans day is a good way in thanking the veterans for their work and service to our country.I feel like veterans day is such a nice thing to honor veterans that have served our country. I feel like many veterans think no one appreciates their work and service they do for our country. Veterans day is that day where they feel appreciated for what they've done for our country. Many families have to go through a lot being a family of veteran they have to learn how to let them go how to be able to not see them for a long time etc. I think Veterans day is the day where both veterans and their families feel appreciated for what they have done to serve this country.

" He that walketh with wise men shall be wise but a companion of fools shall be destroyed." 
--Proverbs 13:20--
What his is saying is that if you walk in with wise nice responsible people you will be wise and successful but if you are companion by a group of fools that aren't responsible and rude people then you will be destroyed and unsuccessful. Its saying that choose who you walk in with choose who's in your group and what group you want to be in because its going to represent who you are and the people in your group will also represent who you are and show what kind of person you are to those that are around you. If you choose a group or walk in a class or something with people that aren't responsible then that will make you look bad because seeing the other people i your group and seeing how that group acts then that will give people a wrong image of you and then the people around will think you aren't wise and responsible because of the people you walked in with.

"The best recreation is to do good." 
--William Penn--
What this saying is that recreation is a good thing in good way. If you're going to recreate something it should be something good. The best recreation is to do good by doing good things. For example you want to recreate yourself but you want to recreate yourself in a good way with good habits. Why are you going to recreate yourself but with bad habits, there are some people that recreate themselves but with bad habits. Sometimes when people recreate themselves they usually recreate with good habits like doing all of their work doing what their supposed to be doing. Many people don't think the best recreation is to do good they think that when you recreate it can either be good or bad but many of those people choose bad.

" Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it."  
--William Penn--
   What this is saying is that when something is right then it is right even if like everyone is against it and doesn't want to do the right thing. Wrong is wrong even if everyone wants to do the wrong thing and not the right thing. For example lets say that you want to say that your group didn't do the project and to take a zero for like take no credit but your group doesn't want you to say that you guys didn't do it because you guys were lazy. Everyone in your group besides you wants to lie and say they did it but take credit for someone else's work. You are going to do the right thing even if your group is against your decision. Therefore you take no credit for it but your group did the wrong thing and took credit for someone else's work. Even if you're the only one doing the right thing then that is good because your doing whats right even when everyone else is against you and everyone is for it like choosing the wrong.
