By choosing the right it makes your future better and better everyday. Choosing the right will lead you to getting a good career and future. Once you choose to do the bad things in life that won’t help you get anywhere and you won’t reach your goals.

Choosing the right will lead you to being happy with life and yourself. Choosing the right will make you prove people wrong, people who told you that you wouldn't make it.

Challenges Teens Face Today

1. Many teens nowadays are so worried what people have to say about them and have trouble opening up to people because they'll feel judged. Some of these challenges that they go through are the way their body looks , getting pregnant at a young age , relationships with their boyfriend/girlfriend , school and jobs stress out the teens. Other teens get addicted to drugs and alcohol that’s what stresses them out because they have the need of wanting it every minute. Some kids get stressed out by their weight because they feel like people will punk on them or will quickly judge them by they way they look. They try so hard to fit in with those people , to try and be skinny so they starve themselves and will stop eating for days.  

2. The challenges i'm facing today is working hard in school , by the doing the right things. To accomplish all the goals i have and make my family proud.

3. Being a CTR person helps me overcome these challenges because i always keep in mind that i have to do the right things in order to get where i'm heading. I have to choose the right pathway.

4. Helping other teens overcome their challenge will be difficult but you can talk to those people have them speak up for themselves. They can also ask someone for advice.

6. The greatest need that a teen will need is support , care and attention. They will need these because if they don’t have that person that cares for them they will lead to do bad stuff. It will lead them to just doing whatever they want because they don’t have that person to tell them what’s right from wrong.

I would prefer to fail with honor than win by cheating” - sophocles.

What this quote means is saying is that they would rather fail than be a cheater and wining. An example for this quote is when someone cheats on a test. This person is choosing to do wrong. They’re lying to themselves and the teacher on this test and they pass with a good score that wasn’t even meant for them but they got it since they were cheating. Those people  are making bad decisions and it will affect them in the future, because they won’t know what to do and they won't have anyone else to cheat off from. It would’ve been fair if you didn’t cheat and did the best that you can do. You might have failed but at least you did it without cheating. A good example would be when someone studies for their finals. That person is deciding to do what’s best for them and their grade. That person has made a wise choice and is going to be a success in life.

Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is a type of disease that develops from the breast cells. It usually starts off in the inner lining of milk ducts or the lobules that supply with the milk. Malignant tumor can spread to other parts of the body, if it has started off in the lobules it is known as lobular carcinoma. The one developed from the ducts is called ductal carcinoma. The majority of breast cancer usually occurs in females. Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in females worldwide. According to the National Cancer Institute 232,340 female breast cancers and 2,240 male breast cancers are reported in the USA each year and about 39,620 deaths are caused by this disease. Symptoms of breast cancer include a lump in the breast, bloody discharge from the nipple, and changes in the shape or texture of the nipple or breast. Treatment depends on the stage of cancer. It may consist of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an annual international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure. The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer.

Reflection: this topic relates to me because i am a girl and this type of cancer can happen to anyone and i need to take care of myself. 

Memorial day 

 Memorial Day is originally called Decoration Day, is a time of a remembrance for those people that have died in our nation’s service. It was originally observed on May 30th as a day of reconciliations and coming together to honor those brave members of the military who gave their all. Many American’s observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries or memorials, holding family gatherings and participating in parades. Unofficially, a t least, it marks the beginning of summer. Some towns and cities still have Memorial Day parades; many have not had parades in decades. A few of the largest parades take place in Chicago, New York and Washington, Dc. IN 2004, Washington DC , held the first memorial day parade in more than 60 years. Many people believed the day is for honoring any of the dead, not just those who died serving our country. People see it as a day for cookouts, parties, family gatherings or a long weekend for traveling to visit friends or relatives. Many Americans observe this day by visiting cemeteries and memorials. A fact that i didn’t know was that each year since Dec 2000 a national moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 p.m. local time.

The way I feel about Memorial Day is that it's a remorse day because you are celebrating or honoring those people who died for our country. It could be really emotional to those who lost a loved one while honoring our country. Those who died or came back from war deserve full respect from everyone for serving their country. It takes bravery and strong guts to serve for our country. It’s important to respect them because you don’t know what a simple thank you or a salute does to a service man. Just the acknowledgement that they volunteered to lay down our lives to keep this country free. Put a single rose on their tombstone and say thank you. Without the sacrifices those brave individuals made in the name of freedom, we would not have the ability to sell Ford vehicles, enjoy time with our friends and families, or many of the other things that we take for granted each day.

Eight reason to tell the truth - Barbara a lewis

1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of a misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.

2. Telling others the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.

3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.

4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying ( and getting caught).

5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.

6. You don’t have to tell ( and remember ) more lies to keep your story straight.

7. You gain a reputation of being truthful- a trait most people value.

8. Telling the truth helps you feel secure and peaceful.

This means that Telling the truth will always make you trustworthy. For example when it comes to someone cheating on a test and they tell the teacher the truth that they cheated will be believable.  It's better to say the truth rather than keeping it to yourself and lying to the teacher that you did it all on your own. Always do the right things  and tell the truth no matter what it is. It’s best to do than hurting someone with lies, having to go along with each lie and story you make up and everything else. Always remember that it is better to tell someone the truth rather than having them believe the lies you make up.

“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.” - Dan Dierdorf

This quote means is that if you have the correct goals and keep pushing yourself to reach those goals you’ll be successful. For example, if your goal is to finish your homework before a certain time and you push yourself to reach that goal you’ll do it and get it done. That’s a step closer to being successful. You’re choosing to do the right thing and you are doing it right so everything else you have planned will follow along and it will go right for you. Another example would be of not reaching your goal, not turning in your homework or any assignment.That’s a bad start because you’re giving up and your grade will be going down. There wouldn’t be a chance of someone being able to succeed while not being able to push themselves to reach their goals. It’s always best for someone to reach their goals and being able to be successful while choosing the right. Always do the right things. Choose the right.

The most important thing you will ever have is good values.” - Dennis Prager

This quote means that having  good values is something important to have. Having those good values makes you a wise person as well. For example if you cheat on a test  you have bad values. Having values like that won’t help you succeed or help you on anything. Having bad values won’t make you any better from anyone else. Unlike having good values that will get you somewhere and you’re also choosing to do the right things so there is nothing wrong that can be done there. Deciding to choose what’s right and best for you is always the best thing to do. If you choose to do the bad stuff in life it won’t lead you anywhere and people won’t look at you the same. Always do the right things that can help you in the future. Don’t let any other person bring you down.

An internal phenomenon

"The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem." by Dr. Laura Schlessinger

This quote means that when you do something right you get rewarded by feeling good. By feeling good I mean that you are proud of yourself for doing good deeds for others. You are mostly doing it for yourself because you are the one who gains respect and dignity. People will know you as the good person you are when you do good things. They will also have respect for you because of the things you do for others and yourself. Sometimes it is not about receiving an award, it about doing things to make you feel good. It’s about showing the world your kindness and respect. Don’t always think that just because you did something good you’re going to get a reward for that. Do the right things because then you’ll feel good about yourself. Be kind to others and always help those people in need.

Tallest Man

This record was set on June 27 1940. Robert Pershing Wadlow is known as the tallest man in history.

Wadlow reached 8 ft 11.1 in (2.72 m) in height and weighed 439 lb at his death at age 22. His great size and his continued growth in adulthood were due to hyperplasia of his pituitary gland, which results in an abnormally high level of human growth hormone. He showed no indication of an end to his growth even at the time of his death.

This record fascinates me because he is known for a very tall person. He is basically taller than any other person , it would be hard for him to get into doors or into a car. They would have to make customized stuff for him because he is very tall.

I would like to break a record but then i have nothing in interesting to do in mind for myself to catch attention or to break a record.

“You knew what i was when you picked me up”

In this video there was an indian climbing to the top of a mountain. He was testing if he had courage because most people can’t do that. He couldn’t eat or nothing. He did everything that was possible to climb to the top. Once he got up there he felt full of joy. He was proud of himself for making it up there. When he got up to the top, he saw a snake. He got frightened by it and thought he was going to die.   The snake told the indian to take him to the bottom of the valley because it was to cold up their. The indian answered back by saying “i know what you are , you can bite me.” The rattlesnake told him he wasn’t going to bite him or do anything to him if he took him to the bottom. The indian trusted him and took him to the bottom, once they got down there the snake bit his leg. The indian told him “ you said you weren’t going to bit me”. The snake told him you knew what i was but you still picked me up. This shows that we can’t trust anyone because no one keeps their words.

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

This statement means that even if the problem you are in is difficult you should always choose the right thing. Even if you have to make the hardest decision you should always do what’s right. Never let your friends get in the way of making a decision for you. They might pressure you to do the wrong things but always think twice before you act. Be smart about the things you do. For example if your friends are telling you ditch school with them to go smoke pot and drink. You should think about the bad consequences of what it can do to your body. Also think about the consequences you’ll have to deal with when you get caught by your parents. They will be very disappointed. Always do the right things. Just because your friends do it doesn’t mean you have to. Be a leader not a follower …
