“True Independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right.”

~Brigham young

What this quote means is that you can only be true if you do the right not if you do the wrong will not be true to yourself and that would suck.So next time people ask are you true you can say yes and you would be an independent person.You will be able to have a more free and independent person.You will be a true person and people will be to trust and people will have a nice friend.They can ask you for personal problems and they will have a good time with you

“They’re only truly great who are truly good.”

~George Chapman

What this quote means is that only good people are the ones that do good if you don't do good you're not great.Which is not something good to do it is not that good to people that they are not great.People will get discouraged and will feel like they are worthless and they can't do anything.But they really can it is just that they need to try hard and you can do it.You just have to believe in yourself and have people that support your every move and won't say anything that will discourage you.If you have friends like this make sure that they aren't serious because if they are then you need to get new friends.

“Character matters most.”

~Dale Murphy

I agree with this statement. The reason being is because no matter how good you are at a sport or at singing or stuff like that people will never like you if your character is not good. Cheating to be the best is not in good character either. The reason I say this is because sooner or later you will not feel accomplished or anything if you do not work hard for it. You will get your 5 seconds of fame for cheating and being the best. But if you get caught cheating at anything it will ruin your reputation. If you do not get caught your guilt will eat at you, you will feel like a loser in the long run. When you work hard and have a good character a good mind and try to be the nice and the best person you can be you are most likely to feel good and have good character.  

St. Patrick's Day

Who is he?

He is the primary patron saint of Ireland

What is the purpose of st.patricks day?

It is a religious celebration of when the Irish Patron died which was on March 17th

Why is st.patrick's day designated when it is?

It is designated when it is because of his death he died on march 17th  461

Why a certain color on St. Patrick's day?  
It is rumored that green was the color that caused us to be visible for leprechauns to  see us and if people were not wearing green then the leprechauns would go after you.

Other info.

It also celebrates the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. There are a lot of rumors and myths about St. Patrick and one of those myths was the fact that he banished the snakes from Ireland. He was taken from a raid at only age 16 and then used religion to calm himself.

“Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”

~George Washington

I believe this statement is true. What good use is being beautiful if you are not nice and sweet. People already hate you because you're so beautiful you have to show them that not all beautiful girls are mean and snobby that all of us are beautiful on the inside because that is what counts. If you have so much money what is that you might have friends of course because they only want to use you for your money if you are the meanest person ever. You might get friends if you are popular but only real friends love you when you are at your lowest, and broke and have no money. They will always be there for you if you have the biggest heart, although at times some do not want to show they have a big heart real friends will make them show it. Who cares if you have muscles or are really good at a sport no one is going to like you if you are cocky. You have to be humble, be sweet, and be kind. Treat others they way you want to be treated. True beauty is within.

“It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today”

~James Freeman Clarke

I think this statement is correct. The reason is any little choice you make right now determines something. For example what you are producing right now in high school will determine which college or University you will attend. Going to college and Universities help decide what career to choose which determines how much money you will make. When you do not care about school right now and do not try your best you will probably not graduates and have no motivation not to go to school again which usually means a low paying job and more struggles. Another example would be of an athlete who decides not to go to practice because he is lazy a scout might have gone that specific day or game and he might have missed out on the chance of a lifetime. Everything  you do right now leads to your future. Make sure to choose the right! Make every decision count.

“ The best way to predict your future is to create it.”

~Charles Ketterer

I think this quote is trying to say if you dream hard enough it would be true. It can either be trying to say that or it's trying to say that you have to work hard for what you want. And that there is no easy path in life. My coach always tells me you got to work hard for what you want. If you truly want it you'll push yourself to achieve it. I don't really understand this quote many people may have different point of views from this quote.

“Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly.”

~Otto Graham, Jr.

From my point of view this quote is telling us that when we're going to make a decision to think about it carefully. Choose wisely. Do you want to live a horrible life stealing and doing drugs or in jail. Or do you want to live a life where you're going to work and getting money. You can have a nice house and a nice car and a nice family. You can also screw that up and end up living in a jail cell or on house arrest not being able to go anywhere but from school and to your house. No more parties, no more hanging out with friends, no more traveling because you chose to act wrong and make the wrong decisions. Before doing wrong think to yourself, “Is this really how I want to spend the rest of my life? Or do I want to actually work hard for my goals and make sure I reach them?” Choosing the right will lead you the right way. You're going to be on a roller coaster that only goes up. You may hit some downs but you can always make sure you keep going up until you reach the goals that you want. Make yourself happy but also make your family happy. Show them that you mean what you say and follow your dreams. Don’t let anyone get in the way of your success.

“Act well your part;there all honor lies.”

~Alexander Pope

What this quote is saying is that we all need to act well and not tells lies. If we were to do or say a lie it will be honored and everyone will know you has the person that told that lie. This is why we need to always choose the right and never tell lies because that is not a good thing to do. Lies will someday be brought up again and then it won’t be good because everyone will know what you did. Lies are told because someone what’s to cover up what they did or because they are scared to face the truth and the consequences. We all need to be honest and always tell the truth, nothing but the truth. This is a good thing to do because then you will never get in trouble or into problems. People that always lie will get into problems this is not good because if they lie about one thing then eventually they will start lying about everything. Being honored by a lie is embarrassing because everyone will know you has the person that told a certain lie and then they will not trust you. Lying will not bring you good things, people will stop trusting you or they might not even want to be around you. This is why we should always choose the right.
