                  Student Success Statement

Cowardice asks the question ‘Is it safe?’
Expediency asks the question ‘Is it politic?’
Vanity asks the question ’Is it popular?’

 But, Conscience asks the question, ‘Is it RIGHT?’  and there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor population, but one must take it because one’s conscience tells one that is right.

Reflection:


 This quote has so many things I can talk about. Cowardice will always ask if it’s safe. Most of the time we don’t really care if it’s safe or not and we just do it. Expediency, will always ask if it’s political or not. Most people don’t even care if it’s political. Now a day people do what they believe is right and they don’t sit down and think if it’s the best thing to do. Vanity is one of the big ones because at this time it’s all about looking right for others and do what others do that’s why it will always ask ‘If its popular?’. People prefer to see other people satisfied on the things they do. For an example, you go to school and you are an okay student but you star hanging out with the wrong crowd, most chances are you will start doing what they’re doing because nor you want to feel left out or they keep telling you to do bad things with them. The only one that will end up bad is you not them. When your all grown their won’t pay your rent or pay your bills right?? No they won’t because a true friend wouldn’t tell you to do bad things like smoke. Conscience is the best thing because that will ask you ‘Is it right?’ that’s the best question because you get to think what’s right.
