Memorial Day

1. Memorial Day is a holiday and anniversary that celebrates the death of American Soldiers who are commemorated.
2. It is on the last Monday of May.
3. A few ways to show honor and respect on Memorial Day is by visiting cemeteries, Go to a Memorial Day parade, or Enjoy freedom by spending time with your family.
4. 
5. Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States.
6. Something i will do is probably spend time with my family and count each and every blessings we have been given.
7. What i think about Memorial Day is that it is a good holiday to celebrate. I think it is a good holiday to celebrate because the ones who fight for our country should always be recognized. If someone from the army passes away they should not just be forgotten because they tried their best. These people are amazing because they put their life in danger and are still willing to do it and not give up. It makes me feel happy seeing someone who has or is fighting for our country because without those people who knows where we'd be right now. It takes a lot of courage and dedication to become a soldier it is something you should put your whole heart into when doing it.

“Dare to do right”

To me this quote has a lot of meaning to it. I think it has a lot of meaning to it because when you dare someone to do something good there's a higher chance of nothing bad happening than when daring someone to do something they shouldn't. Daring someone to do something that is right is more beneficial for the person and it's surroundings. Daring someone to do something bad is not beneficial for the person because of the consequences they may have. For example, daring somebody to jump off a bridge can be dangerous. It can be dangerous because the person who is being dared can hurt themselves. Being dared in a good way can be helpful and can even be an act of kindness. For example, being dared to give your food to a homeless man sitting by you. This is very kind and helpful because the homeless person would probably feel really grateful and happy. Doing what's right is always better than having consequences.

Phillip Riggs’ Four Success Tips

1. Work Hard.
2. Follow your passions. Do things you are interested in doing.
3. Don't chase after money.
4. Serve others. Do good things for others, and good things will come to you.

To me these words that Phillip says means that you must work hard to get to where you want to be. You must do something you enjoy and follow your passion. You shouldn't do something for the money, you should do it because you love and enjoy it. When you help others and are good to others good will come to you. I feel this statement relies on “treat people how you want to be treated. Working hard to get to where you want to be is a long process. You must be dedicated to it and not give up. You should focus on doing something you love rather than for the money. I agree to the third statement because you can eventually get tired or bored of what you say is your “passion” but is really not. For example, if i work as a vet but don't enjoy it and i continue to work as one just because i get paid good won't benefit me in the long run because i will eventually get tired of doing something i enjoy. Since i enjoy doing make up i feel i would follow my passion and work hard to get to where i want to be.

Theodore Roosevelt

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.”

This quote is very true and i live by it everyday. Making the right decision can help keep you from feeling guilty of anything and satisfied. Doing the right thing keeps you out of trouble and is something good to live by. For example, you are at a store and you see someone drop $20. You are so tempted to keep the money but you think and end up deciding you should give it back. Giving it back would mean you are doing the right thing. It's always best to do what is right because it makes you feel good and you’ll eventually get rewarded for it in the future. Doing the right thing even when being tempted not to shows what a great person you are. There are not many people who do what's right. Doing the right thing in any moment of decision will show that you are a CTR person.

Wilford Woodruff

“Nothing is ever gained in doing what's wrong.”

To me this quote means that nothing good comes out of doing something wrong. Every time you do a bad thing there will always be a consequence that comes with it. You get nothing out of doing something wrong which is why you should always choose the right. The difference between choosing the right and choosing the wrong is that when you choose the right you are making better choices than when choosing the wrong.

“It's A GREAT MOMENT when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time.”

I really like this quote because it's a good thing to live by. What it means to me is that it's something good to see when seeing someone stand up for others or themselves. For example, if someone at school is getting made fun of and you go and tell the person something it means that you are standing up for them. Standing up for someone can make the person feel good because you will make them feel important. You can make someone's life better just by standing up for them. When stepping up and doing something at the right time is good because it shows you are not afraid. Doing this will make you a CTR person because you are doing something good and not bad. Doing the right thing helps you stay out of trouble and keeps you away from bad things.
