Personal Development Attribute: A Smile

A Smile 

A smile is a good attribute because it can give off a friendly attitude. It also shows to people that you are not shy around others and that you can interact well with others without being to withdrawn. 

" A smile can mean a thousand words but it can also hide a thousand problems." Hannah Jane Carpiso 

Reflection: This quote is saying that while a smile can be a very good thing because it can show how we feel around others it can also be a bad thing because it can also hide a lot of problems we don't want other people to know about. An example can be say a girl who just always smiles can be facing life threatening problems at home because of depression or an abusive home where she has to take care of herself.

  

Personal Development Attribute: Responsible

Responsible 

Responsible: Having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone, as part of one's job or role. Being the primary cause of something and so able to be blamed or credited for it.

Reflection: This is an attribute every person in the world should have because it makes us better. It makes us better because we learn to care for all the things we have of importance it also shows to always be early to care for a person we may or may not know. An example would be caring for the elderly what if you are not responsible enough and they end up dying because you were careless. 

September 11,2001

911 Memorial

September 11, 2001 was a tragic day for the United States because on this day the Twin Towers in New York were targeted by terrorist. There were 4 planes that targeted key locations in American two went to The World Trade Center and hit the Twin Towers the third plane went and hit the pentagon in Washington D.C. and the final airplane was planing on hitting Camp David where the President stays at during holidays. My first memory of the attacks was when I was in school and the teachers told what happened there. At that time I did not know the importance of this event but after the years passed I learned it significance.

Reflection: My thought on this subject are that it was one of the worst things that has happened on American soil. I feel that we needed this as a wake up call so we won't always feel safe in our home which is how it is supposed to be since this world is a cruel place. Now just because I said that does not mean I support this in fact I feel saddened by this for all the families that might have been destroyed but that is how the world works.
