Cowardice asks the question ‘Is it safe?’

Expediency asks the question ‘Is it politic?’

Vanity asks the question ‘Is it popular?’

But, conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’

And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because ones conscience tells one that it is right.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

Well my reflection to this statement of the day is that every choice we make decides on our conscience. Also the way we think is based on how we use our conscience when we think we are failing. Also this statement is good because it teach people how to use your conscience. Also Martin Luther king Jr was a very inspirational person around the time the discrimination was going on about blacks. Also he was a man of non- violence and was very respected. In other words this reflection was to show people even if you have bad thoughts its okay and just better your self.

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity, integrity, and self-esteem.”
Dr. Laura Schlessinger
This statement is sending a message that says that the right thing to do is to have respect for yourself. There is a sane that goes: you can’t love someone,  until you love yourself. You must have self-respect for yourself. How do you expect people to respect you and care for you, if you can’t even do that to yourself. Dignity could be the only thing you have left. You don’t want to give it away. That is what shows people that you are strong.

When you tell one lie
Paul Hatch
When you tell one lie, it leads to another
So you tell two lies to cover each other
Then you tell three lies and, Oh bother,
You’re in trouble up to your ears!
So you tell four lies to try to protect you
Then you tell five lies so folks wont suspect you
Then you tell six lies and you’ll collect
A life filled with worries and fears
‘Cause you cant remember how many lies you’ve told
And half the things you say aren’t true
And sometime you’ll slip up, you’ll trip up and then
Whatever will become of you?
So you lie and lie without even trying
And each lie you tell will keep multiplying
Till the whole wide world will know you’re lying
Then you’ll be
Suspected
Deleted
Rejected
Neglected
Disliked
And you should!
When you lie, you’re closing the door
On everything good

“Go confidently  in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”

Henry David Thoreau

My reflection to this statement is that if your confident enough to do something that’s going to be beneficial to doing good then go for it and if its bad don’t even think about doing something that isn’t confident and will hurt others in the making.
