Success Statement
“I
would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”
Sophocles
Honestly,
no matter be honorable. In everything and all the time, doesn’t matter if
somebody sees it or not. No one has to recognize how much honor you have, only
God, yourself, your family. And even if they don’t see it who cares? At least you’re
going the right way. For example, a test, you know very well that if you pass
that test you will be honored and given a scholarship but
if you don’t you will get no recognition. So you cheat and you get honored, get
treated like a winner, but you know very well yourself that you aren’t a
winner, you cheated. But let’s say you don’t cheat, so you fail the test, you
have another chance. There are other things that are greater coming your way.
And even if you were not treated like a prince or princess because you passed
and aren’t told, “Good job” God is proud of you, because even though you
failed, you didn’t fail to have honor. Being honorable is being real, doing the
right thing. I honor my God by loving him all the time, I honor my parents by
obeying them. Now honor yourself, this country, your school, friends, family,
teachers, no matter what because when you honor them you are showing your good
self and are honoring yourself. In a good way though not a conceited way. What I’m
saying is that you should be honorable, one day you are going to be a mother or
a father, and you would want your kids to honor you. So honor everyone, honor yourself.
And have honor. Choose the right always.
