''We accept the love we think we deserve'' You should always remember your worth and never settle for less. If your in a relationship and your partner isn't benefitting you in any way then remember that you deserve the best and you need someone that is going to make you a better person. Sometimes people don't realize how valuable they are and they let anyone treat them whatever way they want. That shouldn't be happening because everyone's life is precious and you shouldn't let certain people stay in your life if they aren't treating you the right way. Most of the time it's hard to leave someone that you know is bad for you because deep down you're hoping that maybe they will change. However, if you are aware that they're bad for you then you should get out of that relationship and when your ready you can look for someone that's right for you.

''The reward for doing right is mostly an internal Phenomenon:self respect, dignity, self worth, integrity, and self-esteem. Dr. Laura Schlessinger If you choose to do the right then you will always feel good about yourself. Doing the right also teaches you self-respect.It's better to do the right because it makes you feel proud.

''Great beauty, great strength, and great riches, are really and truly of no great use, a right heart exceeds all'' by Benjamin Franklin This reflection is saying that it doesn't matter if your rich or wealthy because in reality thats not what makes us happy. Being pretty doesn't make you happy, being rich doesn't make you happy, and being famous doesn't make you happy. What makes you truly happy is a good heart and a good and healthy life. You can have all the money in the world and still not be happy.

''Act well your part; there all honor lies'' by Alexander Pope This statement means that if your a good person and you make right choices then your honorable. Honor isn't something that you can get very easily, it is supposed to be earned. To earn honor you  just have to always do the right no matter what anyone says, and to never let anyone influence you to do the bad. If your an honorable person then you get respected by most people because they see that your trustworthy and mature to make your own choices. So always remember to do the right.

''Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company'' by George Washington You should only hang out with good quality people because they can help you become a better person. If your hanging out or being friends with people that do drugs, lie, steal, drink, and all that other stuff then they're not benefiting you at all. So there's no point for you to be talking to them. You might want to look cool because your doing stuff that you shouldn't be doing but at the end of the day your going to be the one that ends up affected. You shouldn't have to please anyone or feel pressured to do things that you don't want to do. For example I had this boyfriend that would never come to school and always ditch. So one day  I got to school and he was waiting for me at the gate and he told me ''lets ditch''? and I wanted to please him and spend more time with him becaus...

''Right is right only when entire'' by Victor Hugo Right is only right when its honest and truthful. If you pretend to do the right so you can fool people into believing that your a good person then your not being 100% honest. If your not going to be entirely truthful then you shouldn't fake if or be half true. Its better to be entirely true than only 50 percent.

''If you do what's right, if you live the right way, you'll be taken care of''. by Rachel Castillo People will appreciate you more and value you more if they know that your a good person. For example, if there's a girl and a boy and the boy goes and steals someone's purse then they will want to put that boy in jail but since the girl didn't do anything they will keep her safe and out of trouble. You will also get respected more and noticed by the good actions that you make because if your a good person and make the right choices everyone treats you well.

''In life as in football, you wont go far, unless you know where the goalposts are'' by Arnold H. Glasgow I think this means that in life your supposed to have a specific goal that you want to achieve and a plan you make to achieve this goal. If you don't have any goals in life then you wont have anything to look forward to or anything to motivate you to keep on going. Everyone that has goals is successful because they know what they want to do in life and they know what they're trying to do to make themselves achieve more in life.

''Only those live who do good'' by Count Leo Tolstoy This statement means that if you

''What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right. by Albert Einstein Most of the times people do bad things because it may seem ''cool'' or they want to impress their friends. They may also want to fit in with the popular kids so they want to look like they're bad or ''down'' for anything. A lot of people these days don't do the right because they don't want to look like a good kid. In my opinion I think that everyone should do what they think is right whether anybody likes it or not. Sometimes if your doing bad things to impress somebody you might get into trouble and those people you were trying to impress blame everything on you. So at the end of the day your the one getting affected by the choices you made. But by doing the right things and making right choices then you can go far in life.
