“To know what is right and not to do it is the worst cowardice”

Confucius

Reflection:  Knowing what’s “right” and not doing the right things is not great. Kids they don’t know what’s “right” but they’re processing on that. They’ll learn what’s “right” someday, just not now. An alder one that does know what’s “right” and doesn't do It and chooses to do the wrong things is a cowardice.

Summary:  There was a store open, which was supposed to be closed at that time. Whoever was in charge I assume left it open and some young college football players came in thinking it's open. They realized there was no one there. So they made it very obvious that they were buying the items and not stealing them. Made it very obvious by placing money on the stand. So then they got rewarded for being honest, they received and 50$ gift card.

It’s quite inconceivable that people from T.J are the same as here, I’d imagine them different. I went to see my brother play soccer every Saturday.

Visit some of my friends. I went on a boat for the second time ever. It was better than the first actually. Second time was fun, but the first was just horrible. I got sea sick, which was horrible. I had also helped my grandma a lot with her chores and things around the house. Also help my aunt on babysitting her baby.
