Student Success Statement

“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he’s right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”
-Abraham Lincoln

Reflection: I think that this is a good quote because if you have friends that choose the right it’s a good healthy friendship because you will choose the right together but if you are friends with someone who chooses the wrong they will influence you to choose the wrong and that’s not a good friendship. For example if you have a friend that wants to do drugs and is encouraging you to do them with him he is not a good friend because he is choosing the wrong and taking you with him and sooner or later you’re going to choose the wrong too. If you have a good friend that likes to study and he/she always invites you to study together that is a good friendship because they are choosing the right like you.

Student Success Statement
“When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad.” 
Abraham Lincoln

Reflection: This quote is saying that if I choose to do wrong I will always feel bad but if I choose to do right I will always feel good. For example if I choose to do drugs I might feel good at the moment when I’m doing drugs but later in life I will always feel bad because that was a wrong choice to make and the drugs can have a consequence too. If I choose not to do drugs later in life I will feel good for making a good choice by staying away from drugs and I will not feel guilty for doing something wrong nor having the consequences that drugs have.
