Memorial Day Weekend

This memorial day weekend I went to Six Flags. It was my first time and I was more than scared. We all woke up early so that we won’t get stuck in traffic, but we did.The first ride that I went on was a big one with a big drop. At the drop, I screamed my lungs out. After that, we went to more rides. Every time we were waiting in line for a ride, I was nervous, but I would then get over it. We then ate, and waited a little bit to get on more rides. Although it was hot, it was fun because I went with my two friends, and we were able to spend time together. It was a fun experience. We also took many pictures.That was on Monday. On Saturday, one of my dad’s friends came to visit us. It was fun because they made food and we were able to spend time together. On Sunday, I completed my essay. It took me a lot of hours, so when I was done, I was relieved. It was a 10 paragraph essay. After that, I decided to watch The Vampire Diaries. It is a really good show. A movie that I saw over the Memorial Day weekend was scream. This was my Memorial Day weekend, and although I did not do much, it was pretty fun.

   

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

-Alan Paton

What this quote means to me is very true. I believe that you should always forgive, because if you do not, then you will be holding a grudge. It will stay with you forever, and you will always be thinking about what you could had done to change it, but what you didn’t do. A very good example of this is like the one that we saw in class, where the woman was able to forgive that guy, because she knew that if she did not, then she will not be living in peace. To add on, another example can be if someone has done something to harm you before. They may feel guilty after, because they know that they did the wrong thing. You should forgive them, because they feel sorry for what they made you go through. You should be able to forgive, to be able to recover, because the only way that we will recover fully is if we forgive, so that is very important. If you do not forgive, then you will live with the thought everyday of your life, knowing that you should had forgiven the person. This is why this quote is very important, because it is able to teach us things such as forgiving. If we forgive, then we will live in peace and happiness, and not live holding a grudge.

“Dare to do right.”

- Rex D. Pinegar

What this quote is telling us is always do what is right. It is daring us to doing what is right, instead of wrong. For example, if you get dared to do drugs or something, then you should have the courage to say no. you should say that that is not the correct, and not do it. You should stand up for yourself, and dare to do the right. Another example can be hurting someone, either emotionally or physically. Maybe you are dared to harm someone, but you should not do it. You should not do it because that is the wrong thing to do. Just like this quote says, you should do the right, and have the courage to stand up for yourself. This is why I think that this quote is very important, because it is daring us to doing the right, and that is what we should always do. We should always choose the right, and be a ctr person, instead of a ctw person. This is why I believe that this quote is very important, and it teaches us to doing what is right. There are many more examples, of doing what is right, but these were just a few. We should all be dared to doing what is right, and that way, there will be many more good people in the world. This is why this quote is important.

“Dare to stand alone.”

- Thomas S. Monson

This quote is short but very important. The reason why is because it tells you to do what is right, even though it means standing alone. You should stand alone because you know it’s the right thing to do. For example, if someone tells you to do drugs with them, then you should not. You should say that it is the wrong thing to do, and refuse to do it. You should stand up for what is right. You should do the correct thing, even if it means that you will get made fun of. Another example can be if a group of people say to ditch class. You should stand up and say that it is not right. You should tell them that they come to school to learn, and not be ditching. Even if they all disagree with you, you need to stand up for what is right. Even if you are standing alone. Many people may be scared of standing up, and standing alone, because they may think that they will get judged. To add on, they may think that they will get made fun of, for choosing the right choice, so they do not stand up for what is right. They do not dare to do it, like this quote says. This is not correct because you need to always do what is right, and not care if anyone makes fun of you. You should always make the correct choices. This is what I think this quote means, and why it is very important.

“If I’ve got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed.”

-Dan Dierdorf

What this quote means to me is that you always have to keep your goals, and accomplish them. If you have many goals, and you accomplish them, then everything falls into line, just like this quote says. To add on, if you always do what is right, then that means that you will succeed. This is why it is important to always do what is right. For example, if you actually study for a test, and you do not cheat, then that is doing what is right, and that will make you succeed. You will get a good score, and it will be worth it. To add on, another job can be at work. If you always do your job correctly, then you will be put in a higher level.
