“ I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”

                                               

                                                     Abraham Lincoln

Reflection:

You must remain true to what you believe in.  You can’t be guaranteed that you will succeed all the time, you shall be ready to lose but at the same time the opposite may occur. No matter what it is you have faith in in you shall stay true to what it is that you believe. For example, in soccer. I go for America (the team) when it comes to soccer. Whether they win or lose I will always be their fan. If they lose, oh well better luck next time but I won’t change teams because they lost. I stay true and determined to what I go for. 

                April Fool’s Day

April fools is the first day of April, as a day when people play practical jokes and hoaxes on each other. It is a western tradition. It has been celebrated since the middle ages. April Fools' Day, sometimes called All Fools' Day, is one of the most light-hearted days of the year. Its origins are undefined. Some see it as a celebration connected to the turn of the seasons, while others believe it stems from the adoption of a new calendar. Ancient cultures, including those of the Romans and Hindus, celebrated New Year's Day on or around April 1. It strictly follows the vernal equinox (March 20th or March 21st.) In medieval times, much of Europe celebrated March 25, the Feast of Annunciation, as the start of the New Year. It is fun to do but has a certain limit because anyone can get hurt. People enjoy this day and have a great day fooling others.

                                                                               

  “I trust that my hard work will pay off.”

                                                                               

                                                                                                Tyler Haws

Reflection:

                What we work for is what we earn and get. For example our grades, if we get good grades and take our time to do certain things at some point they will affect us in our future. The good grades we have earned will help us get accepted into the college we want to go to. They will have a positive/good effect on us and our future. Also just like Tyler, hard work will pay off sports wise. If you make time to practice a certain sport you are in to get better and better at it, results will then occur. People can contact you, and make your dream to star in that sport true. Our future depends on our hard work.

“True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what’s right.”

                                                             

                                                                                Brigham Young

Reflection:

When you choose the right you get great benefits. You can have freedom when you choose to do what is right. An example being if you disobey your parents they can forbid you from going out because you didn’t do what is right. Or you can lose doing a certain thing because of your wrong way of behaving. There’s a chance you can sneak out or such but, is it really considered liberty if you did what you weren’t supposed to? As Young states, by doing what is right you can earn true independence and freedom. 

                St. Patrick’s Day

                St.Patrick was the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity’s most widely known figures. Saint Patrick’s Day has come to be associated with everything Irish: anything green and gold, shamrocks and luck. Most importantly, to those who celebrate its intended meaning, St. Patrick’s Day is a traditional day for spiritual renewal and offering prayers for missionaries worldwide. It is celebrated on March 17 because it is said that is when St. Patrick died.

                                                               

“They’re only truly great who are truly good.”

                                                               

                                                                                George Chapman

Reflection:

Once cannot be remembered to be truly great if they didn’t remain choosing the right throughout their life. If they did what was right and stayed that way no matter what situation they are put on. A person can be considered truly good by following the ruled.
