“Nothing is ever gained in doing what’s wrong”

                                                                

                                                                                Wilford Woodruff

Reflection:

                What’s the point in doing the wrong? We don’t gain anything either way, yet again you may gain the opposite. Choosing the wrong is profound to lead to negative consequence, which isn’t good. So, why choose the wrong? Always stick to choosing the right. Choosing the right will lead to a positive consequence in which would make one feel better.

Video reflection:

Mr. Morgan works in an airport and when he was on duty he found an iPad with 13k in the case. He returned the iPad with the money to the authority and it got returned to the owner. The owner gave him 60 dollars in reward thankful for Patrick’s honesty and character. Patrick, instead of keeping that $60, he gave 30 dollars to a homeless lady and the rest to a coworker. His boss then rewarded him with $625, his good deed not going unnoticed. 

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), Integrity, and self-esteem.”

                                                                   

Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reflection:

 Doing what is right is a life style. There is no physical reward to give for someone choosing the right. It’s more of a rewarding feeling one has after doing what is right. When someone does a good deed it makes them feel good about themselves, more useful and handy. it makes us feel better about ourselves because we know we chose the right.

Video Reflection:
            Drinking and driving has always been told to us that it is bad. Eric Smallridge's story is living proof of that statement. He had been driving drunk and caused an accident. Lisa and Megan are the two girls that were in the car when he crashed into them. They died instantly. Renee had made sure Eric got what he deserved for killing them both in an unconscious state. Eric had received 22 years in jail. Renee had then spoke to the judge to cut Eric's sentence in half because she had forgave him. In order for her to move on and such she felt she had to forgive him. forgiving him she accepted what had happened. Renee felt that the only way to cure her injury in her heart she had to forgive him.

When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.”

Reflection:

This quote can be interpreted many ways. I interpret it emotionally rather than physically. Everyone makes mistakes that have affected a person negatively. The person could’ve stayed mad at the other person but they can’t hold a grudge forever. If they really want to get better they have to be able to accept what happened and forgive the person. But because they forgave the person it doesn’t mean they have to talk to them ever again. The thought that you don’t have to hold a grudge against them will let you be in peace. In order to recover from that injury that really affected you, you have to be able to forgive them.
