David Bednar

Student Success Statement
“Obedience is the central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.”

David Bednar

Reflection:

Personally I don’t think that this is true. There are other ways to be happy.  What this quote is saying is that obeying someone or something will always make you happy. What if you don’t want to do that, but since you are an obedient person you will listen and maybe what you are doing doesn’t make you happy. You won’t be happy, you will be miserable.  There are different ways of being and remaining happy, and being obedient isn’t one of them.

911 Memorial

911 Memorial
On September 11, 2001, one of America’s biggest tragedies happened. That day we had four coordinated terrorist attacks launched by the Islamic group al-Qaeda. The attacks killed around 3,000 people and caused millions of dollars’ worth of damage. The two planes that had flown into the North and South towers were, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175. Later, a third plane, American Airlines Flight 77 was crashed into the Pentagon. The fourth plane was targeted at Washington D.C but crashed into a field in Pennsylvania.
          Many people were shocked because of this. Many people woke up that day preparing to go to work and simply have a good day. They thought that they would go home later on that day and spend quality time with their families. Never would they have imagined that they would die that day due to a terrorist attack. Many kids, teenagers, wives/husbands thought that their loved one would be home that night when they never returned. I can’t imagine how that felt; Knowing that your loved one wouldn't be back. I find it sad and disgusting that the people who did this had the heart to kill thousands of people. Me being the terrorist, I wouldn't want to do that because I would lose my life.

           I don’t understand why we still celebrate this day as if it were something good. If I were a victim I wouldn't want to be reminded about this day. I feel like we should forget about it because even if it was a tragic, we shouldn't be reminded about it. Many people just wish that they could forget about that day and every year we “ show respect” when in reality we are just reminding the people who lost a loved one what had happened and many people don’t want to see how their loved one suffered.

“Relentless, Repetitive Self Talk Is What Changes Our Self Image.”

Denis Waitley

 Reflection:

This quote means that whatever we say people are going to judge us. No matter what we think and what we say people are going to think wrong about us. Society tends to judge others. Whether you are nice or mean to someone they still judge. They will continue to judge until they destroy you as a person. If you say something mean to someone they will think that you are a mean person. If you are too nice to others they will think that you are too good. If you simply talk about yourself they think that you are conceited. NO MATTER what you say or do they will still judge you because that is how society works.
