"A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder." 

In life we all have goals and some of us don't. We either want to be something in the future or specialize a career field. Going back to the statement a boat uses a rudder to move in what direction they are willing to move in. And in live without goals you don't do anything and don't go anywhere. For example if you want to be a doctor in the future then you have a rudder because you know in what direction you will head towards. But, if you don't have a goal then you aren't going nowhere. So you don't know where you are leading to like a boat without a rudder you don't know where you are going. You just go where the wind is blowing to and that relates to having no goals. Another goal is wanting to make a difference in life. In order to achieve that goal you would need a rudder. To have a rudder in life you will have to set your mind to something you want. And with a rudder you would be able to manage where you want to go in life.

Memorial Day Weekend 

During memorial day weekend I spend time with my family and we did family BBQ. I also worked on my 6 page essay for my English class. The essay took almost the whole day because it was more than 10 paragraphs. I met some of my family members ranging from aunts uncles and cousins. I also went to my friends house and other friends tagged along. Some movies we saw were Chukie and E.T. It was really fun because we went to go get pizza and then watch movies and music videos. Places I wet was to my cousins house in Hollywood and then most of our family members met there. Then we went to get Chinese food the following day. We also went to go visit china town that same day. There was a lot of people there and I got a turtle there.

"When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive." - Alan Paton 

We will never recover or win anything is we don't forgive what a person has done to us. If someone has hurt us we will not receive anything by hating but to grow bitter and rude. If we the hate person who has hurt us in the past then they person would take pride in what they have done. If we don't forgive then we will never forget that time. And we would always remember what they have done to us. For example if someone killed someone related to you and have hatred toward them then they would be happy and take pride in what they have done. And you don't receive anything good from showing hatred towards them. Or if you do forgive them then it would be a whole different perspective. If you forgive then you would receive something from it. You would be happy that you forgiven them and the other person who hurt you would loose because you wouldn't be mad at them and they wouldn't take pride because they didn't accomplish anything. Or some people would be relieved that you don't hate them.

"Dare to do right" - Rex D. Pinegar

This statement is telling us to do right. Everyone has dare someone to do something and most of the time it is something bad. But this statement is daring us to do what is right. Most of us have done what people have dared us to do. For example if they tell us to go do drugs and we do it it is not a good dare. But if they dare us do what is right then it is a good dare. Or if they tell us to go to school everyday until the end of the school year then it is good. And when thinking about it most of us won't even bother to try doing the good dare.  And most of us would want to accomplish the bad dare. So instead of doing bad dares try making an effort to do what is right.

"Dare to stand alone" Thomas S. Manson

This statement tells us to be alone alone doing right.  If everyone is doing something wrong and your the only one doing right but you have the thought that you are not fitting in. Then stand stand alone because if you try to fit in and want to do something bad then don't try. Because if you do then you will receive consequences. It is better to stand alone because then you prevent yourself from getting in trouble. For example if everyone is doing drugs drugs and you are not but yet you are tempted into doing it then you should't do it. Either you choose the right or the wrong. If you are tempted you should think about the consequences. If you do the right thing then it is better.  And instead think about the good you are doing.

"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

This statement means to me that if we have goals that we want to achieve then we could do that. All we have to do is pursuing them and working hard to achieve. If you do the right thing then you'll achieve it faster. For example if your goal is to get a good grade in your class then it is possible. All you have to do is make an effort in studying for every test you take. And you are doing the right thing by studying for your test because you are getting closer to achieving your goal. Or if you want to be the smartest person then that applies to the first example. When Dan say that everything will fall into line that if another way of saying if you follow your goals then you would achieve it.

"The most important thing you will ever have is good values."-Dennis Prager 

This statement means nothing else is more important but good values. The more good values the more good things will be important.  An example would be if a stranger would be dying and an animal would be dying too. What would you choose to save. Another example if your special photos fell into the ocean and across from it is someone actually drowning which would you choose. If you would have a value Then you would choose to save the person. Because you know that that is more important. And also because you can make new memories. And you can't make a person the same way. And, it is more important to save a persons life instead.

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing." - Theodore Roosevelt

This statement is telling us to do the right thing. For example if is someone is getting bullied and you don't know what to do about it your immediate reaction should be to do the right thing and stand up. You shouldn't just stand there and do nothing. Put yourself in their position. Wouldn't you want someone to stand up for you is you are getting bullied instead of the other person just watching. Another example is if you find money on the floor then you should return because it is the right thing to do. You shouldn't be contemplating weather or not you should give it back to the owner. 

"Nothing is ever gained in doing wrong."  - Wild Woodruff 

You don't win anything when do do what is wrong. But the only thing you gain when doing the right thing is knowledge. For example, if you are cheating and doing the wrong thing then you do not learn or gain nothing. Because you are just copying and trying to get your work finished. And if you are doing the work by yourself then you are leaning and gaining knowledge. 

"It's A GREAT MOMENT when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time." - Pam Knox

If you are planning to step up then do it at the right time. If someone is getting bullied then you should stand up for that person. Don't just stand there and witness it. Do something about it but stand up when the person is getting bullied. Another example is the teacher marked a problem the was wrong right. And then you don't do nothing about it that shows your character. And if you do say that you didn't mark the wrong answers worn then you are showing integrity. 

"I have been asked what I mean by 'word of honor', I will tell you; Place me behind prison walls - walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching so far into the ground-there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross i. Can I get out of the circle? No,never! I'd die first."     -Karl G. Mauser                                                                                                            

This statement is telling us to keep our promises. A promise is never to be broken. For example is you say your are going to do something then do it. If you say your a going to meet up somewhere and you don't at least tell the person before that you can't go. When you do that then it is considered not breaking a promise because you are letting them know you won't be able to assist. And if you don't tell the person nothing then you are breaking a promise. Promises and never to be broken. You should always keep your word of honor. How would you fell if someone didn't keep a promise with you. If you someone would tell lets go to the mall and you get there and they are not there how would you react. And if they tell you that they are not going to be able to assist in going then they are keeping their promise.
