"It’s not so much the journey that’s important; as is the way that we treat those we encounter and those around us, along the way”--Jeremy Aldana
This quote is an important reminder to people all around the world. Treating people well along the journey of life is what shapes the world around us. When people stop focusing on themselves and their own lives and instead start letting people into their lives with respect and kindness, a butterfly effect is initiated. Their good attitude will inspire the people around them to be kind and respectful to others, and it will make the journey to one's destination easier.

Today, we watched a video entitled "THE CYBER BULLYING VIRUS". In this video, we were told the story of the character Jane Doe being harassed by victims of a new virus. This new virus caused people to become cruel, even if it wasn't in their character. The video then explained how horrible cyber bullying can be. Cyber bullying is a serious matter, and if people are being bullied online, they need someone to stand up for them and be their friend. It might even save their life.

While I do respect many people in my life, one of the people who I respect the most is my old English teacher, Mrs. Cummins (although she'll always be Mrs. Gemon to me). She is an amazing woman, and I will always look up to her. Her and I work together with Key Club, and through this we have both earned a mutual respect for each other. She works very hard both as an English teacher and as an adviser for Key Club.

In the story we read today, goblins made fun of an old man so much that a great wizard decided to make their disrespectful comments reflect on themselves. They were so absorbed in making fun of the old man, they didn't realize themselves changing into monsters. The moral of this story is that when we say things, we should really reflect and think about what we're saying. We might not realize how disrespectful and mean we are until it's too late.
