“Kindness is the essence of greatness.”

Being kind is the best way to be because if you’re not kind then people might look at you wrong and you won’t like it. So might as well be kind and if you are people will be able to depend on you and trust you.

Thanksgiving Week

The thanksgiving week was good. What I did was just stay home and I went out couple of times but I just wanted to stay home. I did my health homework and English homework. On thanksgiving I went to my cousins house and it was her parents, my mom , my aunt and my little brother. Me and my cousin were helping out in the kitchen organizing the plates and cups. Then we all sat in the table and ate. I spent the night over my cousins and we were watching scary movies and we didn’t go to sleep until 4 in the morning and when we woke up we made breakfast then I spent the whole day there until I went home. On the last day of the weekend , which was Sunday I went to my grandma’s house and it was like a second thanksgiving.

“Manners maketh man.”

If you’re the type of person who is always rude to people and never have manners then you’re the type of person people won’t want to be around with because of how you are. But if you’re the type that is kind and has manners you’ll be known as a nice person. For example if you’re at a store or any place with a lot of people and you bump into someone and you say ,”sorry” or “excuse me” then that’s you having manners but let’s say someone bumps into you and you tell them “watch where you’re going” with an attitude that person might think you’re a rude person and might look at you the wrong way. It’s better to be a person with manners than a person with no manners because if you treat people with kindness you might end up getting it back.

“If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, don’t say it.”

Marcus Aureluis

He’s saying be smart on what you do and be smart on what you say because if you do the wrong things you pay consequences and if you say the wrong things that aren’t true  you might end up hurting someone and if you’re the type of person to say things that aren’t true and do the wrong things people are going to see you as a mean person and you rather be a person whose wise and do the right things so people can see you as a good person. An example of being a person who does neither and does the right things that the quote says , let’s say you hear something from someone about your friend and you’re not sure if it’s true it’s better to let the person know than rather keeping it from them.

Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving all started in 1863 celebrating the army victory at Gettysburg. The official date of thanksgiving is on November 26,1863 as to Abraham Lincoln recalled. It’s usually celebrating the victory that happened and it was on Nov 26. They also had the Native Americans with them because around that time that’s when the Native Americans came around and helped them win the war and they all celebrated thanksgiving together.  Thanksgiving is a day to be thankful for what you got and to be with your family. Thanksgiving is a holiday where you get together with your whole family and have a big feast of food. When on thanksgiving day you spend time with your family and catch up on what’s been going on and just have a great time.

I am thankful for:

• My family
• For everything i got
• My friends
• The teachers that motivate me

“Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing.”

Chick Moornman

It’s better to be a type of person that to always do the right thing other than be the type of person to always wanting to win because it can end up making you mean and people might think bad of you so it’s better to be that type that it doesn't matter to you whether you win or lose.

November 11

Veterans day is a holiday celebrated for the end of World War 1 , we celebrate it on November 11 because that’s when we won the war. The purpose of Veterans day is to show our respect to those who fought and to those who lost their lives. The ways you can show honor is

• Fly a flag at your work or house
• Support the military now
• Celebrate at a restaurant
• Have a cook out at your house
• Show or tell other people what Veterans Day is

When I think of Veterans Day I think of all those whose fought and who have lost their lives fighting. It shows how much the military has done just for us to be safe. I do have a lot of respect towards Veterans and it’s something that will be celebrated forever.

“He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

Everyone should be a wise person because when you’re wise you think about everything twice. It’s better for you to be a good person than be someone who doesn’t care about themselves or anyone else. Those type of people end up doing the wrong and end up somewhere where they’ve never wanted to be in the first place but because those did the wrong they got the wrong thing back. But if you’re a wise person and think about everything twice and do the right things you’ll end up somewhere successful.

“The best recreation is to do good.”

William Penn

What he means is that if you don’t like how you’re doing at school or anything , find something that makes you relaxed. When you do that you can get a fresh start for the day and it’ll lead you to doing good. When you do that it makes you more motivated to do new things and good things. If you’re having a bad day just do what makes you calm and you get a fresh start as there.
