                                “I won’t cheat”
                                                               
                                                                                Dale Murphy
Reflection:

                This quote may be only 3 words but has very deep meaning to it. Cheating is an act of choosing the wrong which isn’t okay. If you cheat throughout life at some point it’s going to hit you that you didn’t do that right thing to do, which is what you should’ve done in the first place. Saying “I won’t cheat” goes towards any situation in life. For example in a test, when you find money, in a relationship, etc. cheating isn’t necessary in life. Telling the truth and doing an honest act is choosing the right.

Becoming an oncologist seems interesting and such but   I wouldn’t like to work as one. Although they treat cancer patients and save many lives, this job wouldn’t be for me.

                                “Character Matters Most”
                                                               
                                                                    Dale Murphy
Reflection:

It’s virtuous to have a positive character. People with such character tend to be more happy and out-front in life.  Having a respectable character will take you the right way with a worthy path in front of you. If you have a corrupt character big chance you might not get far in life.

This job seems to be interesting yet mysterious. There isn’t much information to what they do or how much they get paid, etc. I wouldn’t consider being a heliotherapist.

  “Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and
 truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”
                Benjamin Franklin
Reflection:

If you don’t have a good heart but have many other things, is it really worth it? Beauty or strength doesn’t help you out in important ways. What good is being beautiful if you don’t have a good heart? Why do you want to have strength if your mind isn’t set to choose the right? For example, many people say that rich people are usually filthy rich with nothing to spend money on but are deep down alone. The greed of riches leads to bad things and can leave you by yourself. You can have little to nothing but with an unlimited heart you have a lot. People who have more riches than others, believe that they are more and usually don’t have as many friends, mainly because they are so selfish and don’t have the best heart.
