Student Success Statement

"Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly."-


I agree with Graham's statement. Before you do or say something you have to think about it. You have to decide weather what you are about to do is going to hurt someone or make them feel better. An example of doing the right thing was on the news. A homeless man was asking for money and when a lady put her hand in the bucket to give him money she accidentally dropped her engagement ring. The guy went to check how much it was and a man offered him $4,000. He thought about cashing it in to pay rent for an apartment, but he did the right thing and instead he waited for the lady to come back and he would give it to her. When the lady came back to claim her ring she was so grateful that the man had not cashed it in. She started a go fund me account for him and they earned enough money for him to get a house. Not only that, but the man reconnected with his family.

"Enthusiasm makes the difference"-Dr. Norman Vincent Peale I agree with Dr. Peale because it all depends on how you approach things. When you are excited to try something new you will be glad with the outcome.  When you are sad on trying something new you go with a bad attitude and and don't end up enjoying the experience. I believe this quote is a life lesson. You should always approach things with enthusiasm.

Student Success Statement

 "Kindness  is the essence of greatness."- Joseph B. Wirthlin I believe that Wirthlin's statement is true. When you are kind and caring to an individual you become a great person. One sees you differently when you are kind. They see that you are kind, caring, and respectful person rather than a person that is selfish and only cares about themselves. One example of kindness being an essence of greatness is giving up your seat for someone on the bus. If you see you someone is struggling to carry their items or is having trouble walking or standing you should be kind and offer them your seat. Another example of showing kindness is helping out the less fortunate. If you can afford something they can't like food or clothes be kind and give them some. It doesn't have to be new clothes or bought food it could be used clothes that is in good condition and a home made meal.

Disasters

The event I choose to talk about is the California mudslides.  In January, a massive mudslide occurred killing over 21 people. This all started when the states largest fire occurred, the Thomas fire. The people that lived in the community of Montecito and Santa Barbra were effected by the mudslides. Some lost there home The U.S. forest fire is helping to clean up the mess and possibly get people back to their home The mudslides relate to me and others because some people might know someone or are related to someone that was in the mudslide.
