In the story Mr. Haymore shared with us we learned that it's a very special moment when people do  the right thing. Malik losing the state title that he worked very hard for went and congratulated his opponent and then his opponent dad’s. This was honorable because even though he lost he showed great respect and he showed what kind of person he was a CTR person. Even Malkis opponent was an honorable man because he won fair and square without any dirty tricks or cheating. Malik then said that he didn't do it for the fame he did it from the heart because he knew how it felt from personal experience. However on the contrast Roman Chapa won by cheating in a very dirty and unpleasant way

           “ I would prefer even to fail with honor                    

                                             than to win by cheating “

Winning isn't really winning if you cheat, why? Because when you cheat it means that you couldn't have done it by yourself that you needed help to do it, It doesn't create the same feeling when you cheat as when you play fairly. Losing with honor may seem like it sucks but trust it makes you feel better about yourself when you know you went out there and do your best you worked hard without any help. It's like a fallen soldier who has lost his life but has protected and saved millions of others life. When you win without cheating it’s an amazing feeling that fills you with joy and makes other near you proud. It’s like when you win your school championship with

After i continued playing my favorite game clash of clans on my phone for a while then watched one of my favorite T.V. shows called Lucifer. Other i like are The Walking Dead, The Flash, and The Arrow.

If I’ve got correct goals, and if i keep pursuing them the   

  best way i know how, everything else falls into line. If i

        do the right thing right. I’m going to succeed.”

                                    Reflection

When you have good goals you aim for good things however when you have bad goals you aim for bad things. That's why it is always good to have good goals that way you can always aim for the best and do good things. When you have bad goals for example robbing people your gonna end up in jail where no one respects you, your gonna be hated. But if you had good goals you’ll be very successful loving and caring person that everyone will like. Thats why its important in which goals you pursuit because they can either do good for you or bad.

“The most important thing you will

       ever have is good values”

Good Values is what you value or consider valuable. If you have good Values it means the things you consider important to you are good. When you have good Values your are a respected man . Your educated and smart and were taught well by his parents. When you have good values you                                                                                   dont waste or spoil your life for silly things that aren't worth it. Why? Well because  you're smart enough to know that even though something looks fun it's not really fun it can be either very dangerous or get you in serious problems. You're Smart enough to know that there is more to appreciate and there's more to work for because once the hard work ends your life will truly be paradise.

  An internal phenomenon

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self- respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem.

                                        -Laura schlessinger

Well i believe that it is in amazing feeling when you do something that is right. Why? Well because the fact that you made someone else's day fills you up with so much joy. Caring about others before yourself is a great characteristic to have because you will have lots of friends you will be loved and cared for by everyone. When you do whats right you dont need a reward because there is no reward required  doing what's right is  a reward itself because your life is being blessed by goodness. Ms Schlessinger is very smart for having this kind of mentality because it shows that she is a great person herself.  When you do whats right without expecting something you have self respect because you dont see yourself as a person who is always demanding for a price. You cant always expect a price when you do whats right because then it wouldnt be you choosing the right it just be wanting a price.
