Monday "It's not so much the journey that is important; as is the way that we treat those we encounter and those around us, along the way" -Jeremy Aldama This quote is a perfect way to act throughout your life. It is basically saying that the most important part in life is how we treat others and how we change the lives of people around us. We want to strive to make a positive influence to the people that we surround ourselves with. If we want to live a full life it is necessary to bring some life and joy to those around us.

Wednesday In this video, the narrator talks about a serious problem. The cyber bullying virus is the real problem. Hurting people by hiding behind a screen can cause worse things to happen than if it were said in person. Hiding helps you say things you wouldn't normally say. This can hurt people more than anyone can see unless they have felt it before. This can cause depression, separation, loneliness. People who do this need to be stopped and if you see anyone doing this put a stop to it.

Thursday One person I respect tremendously is Mr. Shenise. He is an amazing person. He is always there for people who needs it and his attitude never wavers below happy. Mr. Shenise helps people wherever he goes whether it be explaining science to some struggling student or just trying to brighten their day. Mr. Shenise coaches the Cross Country team and he always makes sure we are well prepared for whatever the sport throws at us, whether it is an injury or inclement weather. Whatever the case is Mr. Shenise always makes it positive and I respect him very much.

Friday The moral of the story is that when you hurt other people, you pay no attention to the hurt that you are doing to yourself. In this story the old man was blessed so that every insult would make him younger and the insulter would get older. The pack of goblins that were insulting him were so caught up in making these demeaning remarks that they didn't realize the damage they were doing to themselves. The moral is that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it because what you say just doesn't hurt others, it hurts you too.
