Sally was a very proud girl. She belived that she was flawless. One day, Mrs Yeo, her math teacher, asked her to answer a question on the board. Since she had not been paying attention, she had no idea how to answer the question. When she answered the 'all so simple' math problem wrongly, all her classmates laughed at her. She was furious. "My answer is correct! Mrs Yeo has made a mistake in her own working!" she exclaimed. "Sally! You sit down right now! You lose out for not paying attention." Mrs Yeo said in a low voice.
None of us should be like Sally. The value TRUTH means to have theability to admit our mistakes when we are in the wrong.
If we have done something wrong,we should admit our mistake and apologise if needed. We should never think that we are always correct and that it was others' fault

maximising potential
maximising potential..wow you hear that alot now,dont you think.your teachers your principle,and maybe other people but in different ways.because if i heard that from everybody i would be wearing ear-plugs to school.
but it is very hard to do it because to me ,maximising potential comes with insperation.but insperation doesn't hit you like a rock.so you have to think and think and think and think,so after reading this you dont have to wonder why most authors are old with white hair.but i belive if you are determind you will be able to maximise your potential.

god-fearing
god-fearing does not mean that you fear god.but rather respect him for he is higher then you.respecting him means alot of things,but the thing that most people should start with first is to stop saying god damn it.i have to admit that that is also the first thing i say when i hit my finger on the table,or whatever you do to make yourself say god damn it.saying god damn it is not respecting him because you are using his name in vain.
freedom
freedom is something that has to be 'earned',which is kinf of wierd.if you want it work for it,or something like that.
you know sometimes you really do feel like a bird in a cage when you go to school or stay at home.but i know that freedom also has its limits,like when the bird flys too close to the sun it will become BBQ chicken or maybe choke on the atmoshpere.
if you really feel restrained you should tell your...whoevers restraining you...that you feel stressed,'choked',pulled back.but i'm telling you first doing that is not in your best interst because well people dont admit their mistakes.
like maybe the first thing your mum does is accused you of throwing books on the floor when actually it was your younger brother,and when you tell your mother that, she STILL SCREAMS at you because you didnt pick it up when you JUST steped foot in the house.

::justice::
justice is seen in different ways,to us making us do alot of homework is like condaming to a life sentence,but the adults might think likewise.
here is a story on justice which has nothing to do with what i said.
The Bush administration replaced the head of the Bureau of Justice Statistics, Lawrence A. Greenfeld, because he refused to delete references to racial disparities from the press release announcing a Bureau study about traffic stops and other contacts between the public and the police. The report, Contacts between Police and the Public: Findings from the 2002 National Survey found that although Blacks, Hispanics and Whites were roughly equally likely to be stopped by the police, "police were more likely to carry out some type of search on a black (10.2%) or Hispanic (11.4%) than a white (3.5%). " When Mr. Greenfeld refused to delete the references and issue a misleading press release, he was demoted and the report was released without a press release
