                                        Integrity
Today we watched a video of the president Abraham Lincoln and how he was loyal and kept a promise. He was tempted by something that would break a promise he had made many years with his mother. One day his mother was really sick and they had told her that she wouldn’t get well so her mother told Lincoln that to promise her he won’t ever drink whisky or smoke tobacco and he did. Many years had passed sense that promise and one day he went for a ride with the colonel and he offered him a whisky and he said “No coronel thanks,” on the road the coronel offered a cigarette and Lincoln said, “No coronel let me tell you a story first and then you can ask me again,” so he told him the story. The coronel told him that he won’t ask him a question that would break his promise to his mother ever again. He showed integrity
