To Be the Best Humans We Can Be

I agree with Tim Wilson: actions speak louder than words. He wrote about how his kids should act in life, but most importantly he set an example as to how his kids be by committing to his words.His advices to his kids are very thoughtful. I truly believe that it sends out a much stronger message when you act the way you want your kids to act and not just telling your kids what to do. Show them what to do. A lot of the time it is extremely hard to compose yourself in certain situations when you are dealing with some extremely rude people. From what I read, I truly feel like Tim Wilson is a really good dad that is responsible and would do anything for his kids; and that is exactly how a father should be.

The Love I Choose

Personally, I don't know what love is and I don't think I will find out for a while. But I do agree with Jessica Zerr that love is thinking of your other half and wanting the best for them. When you are in love, you put the person you love above everything; even yourself. You would notice little things he does and lock those little things in your head. I think there is a different between family love and lover love. You can't pick who your family is, but you can pick who you want to spend the rest of your life with. Honestly, I don't know if my mom would pick me or my dad if she really had to pick. There is a special bond between mother adn daughter but there is also a bond between husband and wife. Completly two different kind of love. I hope that I can feel what Jessica feels one day.

Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

I think it takes a lot of courage to stand up and admit what issues you are currently dealing with. I hope that everybody who is suffering from pain should seek help or at least talk to a friend because i truly believe that communication is the key to many issues in life. It makes you feel better just having the opporunity to come out and say how you feel. I personally believe that nothing can be worst than death; therefore nothing in life is bad enough where you feel like you need to end your life.
