Student Success Statement

"It's a great moment when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time." -Pam Knox

I agree with Knox's statement because when is a good person with manners they well help those that are struggling. For example, in the final conference game of Western Oregon vs. Central Washington player Sarah Tucholsky form Western Oregon scored her first ever home run in the second inning, second pitch. 3 of her teammates were also on base, so she did a 3 person homerun. Everyone was cheering until they noticed that Sarah was not running to home plate. It turns out that when running Sarah missed 1st base and she turned back to touch it, but when she turned something went wrong. Sarah had injured her knee and acl. She stayed on the floor holding on to first base. Her teammates wanted to help, but they weren't allowed to. This is when player Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace stepped up at the right time and decided to carry Sarah around the plates having her left leg touch the bases.

"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.

 "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.
