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. 

"When a deep injury is done to us, we never recover until we forgive." - Alan Paton

Student Success Statement - 3/23/2018

"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right." - Theodore Hesburgh  This quote is being said by former President of Notre Dame, Theodore Hesburgh. He is saying that all the decisions we make should be driven by the concept that the choice you are making is what is right. Many times people don't make decisions bcause it is the best choice but some people make them because it is what everyone else is doing. Just because everyone else is doing something it doesn't mean that it is automatically wrong, sometimes the popular choice is the best choice.  There have been many times when people have chosen something because it is popular and I don't think that is right. I feel like this quote is something many people should think about when making choices.
