Memorial Day Weekend

On this memorial day weekend it was not like many other ones that have passed in the past. Most of the times before I had not really done anything but this time I  went to Universal City and I watched the Pirates of the Caribbean plus I got to spend a good amount of time with family and we got on some rides ate food and just in general had a good time over there.  

memorial day

Memorial Day

A day on which those who died in active military service are remembered, traditionally observed on May 30 but now officially observed on the last Monday in May.

Usually May 30 but it is always the last Monday of May.

1. Fly the flag
2. Say thank you
3. Support the military families
4. Visit a cemetery
5. Attend a memorial service
6. Observe the minute of silence
7. Keep the history alive

Annual Decoration Days for particular cemeteries are held on a Sunday in late spring or early summer in some rural areas of the American South, notably in the mountain areas. In cases involving a family graveyard where remote ancestors as well as those who were deceased more recently are buried, this may take on the character of an extended family reunion to which some people travel hundreds of miles. People gather on the designated day and put flowers on graves and renew contacts with relatives and others. There often is a religious service and a picnic-like "dinner on the grounds," the traditional term for a potluck meal at a church. It is believed that this practice began before the American Civil War and thus may reflect the real origin of the "memorial day" idea.

I think that for memorial day i will go visit the cemetery in honor of the people that died for us.

Do Right

“Dare to do right.”

                 Sometimes you can be left to make a “difficult” decision, but the best choice is the right choice. As Rex D. Pinegar quotes, “Dare to do right.” he states it right then and there. It is the better character to make the right choices, even if you may stick out or even be see as the “bad” one. You have to be brave enough to make the right decisions and to choose the right. Pinegar quote shows this, as you can only have the best outcomes and you would also be trusted when taking responsibility. With this, you should never take the easy way out, you should  “DARE TO DO RIGHT” and choose the right decisions when the time comes.

brooke

I think that Brooke is a nice girl tat just needed t be understood in a different way so she took the big step to stand up and believe in what she thought was and wasn't right no matter the consequence. Yeah she was like a head taller than most of her friends but that is what make her look apart and different but no matter that she was that tall she still hung around with people that were nothing like her and decided to make new friends.

“Dare to stand alone.”

I think that what this quote means is that if you are willing to do crazy dares that are of no use then why not dare to stand alone when it is to do the right and to do something that makes sense in doing. And this is important because whenever you choose to do what is right then that is when it matters and when all of this actually comes to a sense.

I that what that quote means is that whenever you choose to do what is wrong the you will never get something good but if you choose to do what is right then you will have a good blessing and everyone will know how good you are and blah blah blah and all that other bullshit but at least your life will be good and set as far as economically and financially and you won't have to work and you can be like donald trump a multi billionaire and be rich and so forth.

Word of Honor

“I have been asked what I mean by ‘word of honor’. I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls--walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground--there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can I get out of that circle? No, never! I’d die first.”
