*What is your personal credo (belief)?* * *
My belief is that family comes first. This isn't that big of a deal in my house hold but I think it is very important. Your family need to rely on you in many situations, so if you don't put them ahead of everything and everyone they can't do that. My family barely ever eats dinner together because we are so busy and it honestly makes me sad. I wish we had more time to hang out and do family things together. It's important belief to me because when your in so deep and can't pull your self out, its not your friends that will be there for you it's your family. I mean they don't care no matter what the problem or situation is they will always love you and get you out of it. They could be upset or a little disappointed but eventually they will forgive you, just because that's what family does for you. Also your family is your back up plan when you lose everything such as a house, car, and friends your family is always going to be there for you and they will always call you family. I rely on my family for lots of things and if i ever lost them it would be a catastrophe! I need my family and my family needs me. This is why it's my number one belief in the world.

writing prompt #3
What characteristics do you value most in a friend? Explain why they are important.
In a good friend things have a be stable like certain things you just do because your that kind of friend. I believe on of those characteristics should be, "being there for them." There's two different things you can do to be there for that person in the right time. I think that being there means you will never leave them last, always putting them first. I know it's hard sometimes but when you can you always do. Also this means you would do anything for them, such as: loaning them money no matter the cost, getting thrown under that bus for them, and even letting them stay with you forever if they have too. Kindness is another characteristic because if they cant be kind to you why would you want them around you. They might joke around with you and things but they will never be mean to you, or do things behind your back when they know its wrong. I also think that they should be kind to your friends and family because if they are a true friend they wouldn't want to make someone that you love upset. The biggest factor in any good relationship of any kind, is respect. Best friends are going to tell each other everything and that friend can't just go around telling everyone about it. You want them to respect your personality and the secrets you share with them. definition of a great friend right there.

Prompt 2
What does the following quote mean to you? "You don’t get to pick where you’re from, but you always have control of where you’re going."
This quote is something that can either take you very far in life or lead you down the wrong path. Choosing where you are from, is like choosing what color your hair is before your born. It doesn't happen very often and you can't just change the past with the snap of two fingers. I believe that where you are from is out of your control from the beginning. Your parents decide what kind of a life you have as an infant, and what happens around you. They either show you the road you want to go down or don't want to go down. It is your decision weather you pick the bad or good way. Controlling your future also depends on weather you are a follower or a leader. Followers, follow their friends down the road to a disastrous life and the life no one wants them to be in. You could also go down the future of terror from following your parents, if your parents are bad your more likely to go down the same road. I believe you get out of your life what you put into it. If you try all the time and do your best you are more likely to have a bright future. You can also just not give a crap and those are the people that fail at life and don't have a good life.

If a handful of people can change the world for the worse, then I am certain that a handful of people can change the world for the better.
What will you do do to make this world of ours, which feels so broken right now, a better place?
So many things have happened in this world that make it seem so terrible, when really it could be so much better. Every day people make changes in their lives for better or for worse, but in some way it changes their lives in a big or small way. You can make a decision to make yours either of those ways. We people make the difference.
I will try and show everyone that i care even though I might not know them. At least they might feel like they matter, even just a little bit. People do things stupid because they are stressed out or have psychological problems. So if i can be happy almost every day and act like people matter to me, it may help them through their day even a little bit. I believe that if people in school could say hi to someone new every day the world would be a happier place. Their home life might be the worst or best thing ever but their school life can be better and if I can be happy every day and get someone that is in a bad mood or feeling deprived to smile then I will have done a good deed those days. Everyone deserve's to feel like they matter at some point in their life and if the only place they can get that is in school then don't be mean to them, just show them that you know they're their.
Every body is different and that's what makes this world so amazing. So many types of people and no one is exactly a like another. Just like people say, "Don't judge a book by its cover" that is the same as a human. Don't judge them by the way they dress or act because you do not know them at all. On the inside they may be a completely different person but you will never know until you see them as a normal person, and say hi or talk to them. I love that everyone is different, and I have judged people but I still give them a chance to show me that they are fun and outgoing on the inside, but just a little shy or different on the outside. That's why i pretend sometime's to be happy everyday because the person that is sad might look at me and get their one smile to come onto their face for a couple of seconds. That right their is what I and all of us can do to make this world a better place than it was yesterday.
