I've been thinking a lot lately.

So today, everyone in BHS was expected to go to this "Rachel's Challenge" (Seminar?.. I don't think that would be the best word), but anyway; it was this absolutely touching Presentation about the first girl to die in Columbine. I was really touched, and amazed by her views on human ethics, and I just remeber thinking, "If everyone did these things, the world would be a better place."


I considered myslef to be good person. I think that I'm generally nice and friendly with everyone; but I know I'm not perfect. I know I take a long time to forgive people, and I know I get upset with people too easily sometimes. I want to work on that.

Other than forgiveness, I think I try really hard to show love, help others, lead, and show mercy. I think mercy is one of the most beautiful things a person can have. I mean, mercy is having complete mental/emotional dominance over someone, and being a big enough person to not use that advantage. If you're ever in the position where someone is at your mercy, you have an edge over them; but the beauty lies deeper. Being able to give up that edge makes you strong and beautiful as a human being.

Another thing the people talked about was the importance of setting goals. I decided I wanted to write down some goals on my blog, just so I won't lose sight of them:

( )1. Save someone's life.
( )2. Have someone remember me from somewhere, even though I haven't seen them in years.
( )3. Fall in love with someone I'm crazy about.
(X) 4. Give to Charity.
( ) 5. Make someone cry tears of joy.
( ) 6. Live on in word or memory after my death.
( ) 7. Be married to ONE person for life.
( ) 8. Help/Save a child in need.
( ) 9. Work in Music/theatre, or education.
( ) 10. Teach people against hate.
( ) 11. Adopt a child in need.
