Student Success Statement - 5/19/2018


there is others way to recover from something hurtful. it is  not always easyto forgive and to just put it in a sentance like that is dumb because they over simplify. it is not like you suddenly tell your brain that its time to stop being mad at whatever and just forgive them. it takes time and it is not always easy. also the example was dumb because we all know, well people with actual knowledge of the harsh realities, tha if this person were black or any other race but white he would have never been able to get out that soon.. he might of not even been able to get out. this guy was privledged because he killed two people and got out after 11 years? that is like 5 and a half years for rach of the girls he murdered. he talks about how bad drinking and driving is but maybe he should have taken his own advice. the amount of years the girls had left are nothing compared to the 11 years he served in jail. it is also kinda weird that the mother said he was sorry for him but never in the video did he say so, he only spoke about still feeling guilty after being let out. also they stated that throughout the time he was in jail he never showed remorse about what he did. also the lady that wrote that letter admitted that at the time that she said she had forgiven him she really didnt and was still mad.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement "Enthusiasm makes the difference." - Dr. Norman Vincent Peale I agree and partially disagree with this. I agree because it is true. Being enthusiastic makes a big difference in the way you see things. Being enthusiastic makes you excited for things and that can help your mental health cope and become happier. I partially disagree though, because sometimes people can not be enthusiastic because they may be depressed or have another mental illness that makes them not feel enthusiastic. I feel like being enthusiastic makes me feel good. This year, i decided to become more enthusiastic. Ever since then i have looked at the positive things in life. I have been doing this for several months now and i feel happy and i think that has really improved my grades. I enjoy coming to school because i am very enthusiastic about it and want to succeed.
