Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a time of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. It was originally observed on May 30th as a day of reconciliations and coming together to honor those brave members of the military who gave their all. Some towns and cities still have Memorial Day parades; many have not held one in decades. Some of the largest parades take place in Chicago, New York and Washington, DC. In 2004, Washington, DC, held its first memorial day parade in more than 60 years. Some people believe the day is for honoring any and all of the dead, not just those who died in service to our country. Many see it as a day for cookouts, parties, or just a long weekend for traveling and visiting friends or relatives. Americans also observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries and memorials. Something I didn’t know was that each year on memorial day a national moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 p.m. local time.Friday, May 27, 2016

barbara a. lewis quote
1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of a misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
2. Telling others the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than lying and getting caught.
5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
6. You don't have to tell and remember more lies to keep your story straight.
7. You gain a reputation of being truthful- a trait most people value.
8. Telling the truth helps you feel secure and peaceful.
This means that you should always tell the truth no matter what. Telling the truth will make you trustworthy. For example when it comes to someone cheating on a test and they tell the teacher the truth that they cheated will be believable. It’s better saying that truth than keeping that to yourself and lying to the teacher that you did it all on your own. Always do the right thing and tell the truth no matter what it is. It’s best to do than hurting someone with lies, having to go along with each lie and story you make up and everything else.

dan dierdorf quote
“ If I’ve got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed.” - Dan DierdorfWhat this quote means is that if you have the correct goals and keep pushing yourself to reach those goals you’ll be successful. For example, if your goal is to finish your homework before a certain time and you push yourself to reach that goal you’ll do it and get it done. That’s a step closer to being successful. You’re choosing to do the right thing and you are doing it right so everything else you have planned will follow along and it will go right for you. Another example would be of not reaching your goal, not turning in your homework or any assignment. That’s a bad start because you’re giving up and your grade will be going down. There wouldn’t be a chance of someone being able to succeed while not being able to push themselves to reach their goals. It’s always best for someone to reach their goals and being able to be successful while choosing the right.

dennis prager quote
“ The most important thing you will ever have is good values.” - Dennis PragerWhat this quote is saying is that good values is something important to have. Having those good values makes you wise as well. For example if you cheat you have bad values. Having values like that won’t help you succeed or help you on anything. Unlike having good values, that will get you somewhere and you’re also choosing to do the right things so there is nothing wrong that can be done there. Deciding to choose what’s right and best for you is always the best thing to do.
