"True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse."

             "True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse." 
                                          By: Pathros

This quote means that having all the money in the world doesn't make you "truly wealthy", it just simply makes you rich in money and luxury. But, if you're a really noble and generous person, you're rich in your heart, as in the person you are. Someone that has all the money in the world but is a very selfish and mean is poor in their heart, compared to someone that is rich in nobleness. True wealth in your heart is being a very good human being to everyone. A rich person can still be truly wealthy of the heart if they're noble. For example, a person that is wealthy of the heart will help someone that needs help, donate money to charity, feed the homeless, help around your community, etc. An example of someone that's not wealthy in their heart doesn't help anybody, they're rude, they don't have manners, offend/bully others, etc. Being a wealthy-hearted person affects both everyone and yourself because it defines who you are. It brings good rewards to your life without expecting it or asking for it.

"You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible."

           "You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible."
                                    By: Ezra T. Benson

This quote means that it isn't possible for someone to do something wrong and feel good about it. If someone does something bad, they're going to feel bad about it. But if someone does something good, they're going to feel good about it. For example, if someone does something bad like stealing, they're going to feel wrong and bad about it even if they don't admit it. On the other hand, if someone, for example helped someone in need, they're going to feel right and good about it. It also means that whatever you do whether it's good or bad, you're going to feel that way, depending on your actions if they were bad or good. It's important that you do good because it will bring good rewards to your life unlike doing the wrong thing. If you do bad, you're only going to be bringing negative consequences to your life. It's not right to feel right about doing something wrong. You should feel bad and besides, it's impossible.

"When I Do Good, I Feel Good. When I Do Bad, I Feel Bad."

    "When I Do Good, I Feel Good. When I Do Bad, I Feel Bad."
                                 By: Abraham Lincoln

This quote means that whatever you do regardless of whether it's good or bad, you're going to feel that way. For example, if you give money to a homeless person or someone that needs, you did something good and you're going to feel good about it. On the other hand, if you steal something, you obviously did a bad thing and you're going to feel bad about it even if you admit it or not. This quote impacts me because if causes you think of the bad and good things you've done and realize how you're going to feel about it. Everything you do, makes you feel either good or bad depending on the choice of your actions.

Obedience

                                 "They key to freedom is obedience. 
        The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have."
                                    By: Boyd K. Packer

This quote means that when you obey what you're told, you have a lot more freedom than those who disobey. Obeying brings many good rewards to your life, one of them being freedom. Those who disobey, bring negative consequences to their life. For example, students who disobey their teachers and parents, are going down a bad path for their life. Those kids later on start disobeying a lot more like to police officers, the law, high-power authorities, etc. and end up receiving really bad consequences. Many those people end up dead or in jail. Unlike, people who do obey receive many good rewards. They don't just have respect from everyone and get rewarded with treats, but they have freedom that hundreds and thousands of other people don't have because they disobeyed. Parents, staff, friends, and just about anyone should teach everyone about obedience and listening to others. Everyone should also know the difference between knowing what's the right thing to obey to and whatnot. For example, if someone tells you to kill or hurt someone, that shouldn't be something that you obey to. You should disobey those type of orders.

    

                                                                                                                                         

"Obedience is the Great Test of Life"

                     "Obedience is the Great Test of Life"
                                By: Thomas S. Monson   

This quote means that everyone sees what kind of person you are by testing your obedience. If you obey everyone, then you're a good person who chose to do the right thing and if you disobey then you're a bad person who chose to do the wrong thing. It means that you're living your life by the rules and obeying/listening to what people tell you to do/say. Obeying brings good consequences to your life unlike disobeying. You'll be able to avoid negative consequences by obeying but if you disobey, you'll just bring those negative consequences to your life.

September 11, 2001 was the day that 4 planned plane terrorists attacked occurred. The Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and Pennsylvania got attacked. At 8:46 am, the first plane crashed on the North Tower.

It crashed at the corner of the tower and caused the building to collapse 56 minutes later at 9:59 am. At 10:28 am, the North Tower collapsed. The third plane was also hijacked like the previous ones flew into the Pentagon at 9:37 am. The fourth plane crashed in Pennsylvania. 9/11 wqas a tragic day for thousands of people and will always be a day that no one will forget.

Rest In Peace to all those people who died on that day.

"Education is the Latchkey to Success"

                        "Education is the Latchkey to Success in Life"
                                  By: Gordon B. Hinckley

This quote means that in order to have a successful life, you must have an education and go to school. An education will give you the opportunity to have a good and successful life, than with no education. So, if you don't have an education and don't go to school, you'll lack success in life. For example, if you have an education, you have higher and better chances of getting a good job and earning better money than those who don't have an education. Without it, you'll have to work in a job you don't like for many hours and very little money. This impacts me because it makes you think about how your life would be if you had an education or not.

"Decisions Determine Destiny"

                               "Decisions Determine Destiny" 
                                     By Thomas S. Monson

This quote means that the decisions we take create our future. The wrong decisions we take lead us to a bad future and the good decisions we take lead us to a good future. Our future always depends on the decisions we take whether they're good or bad. For example, if I make the bad decision of smoking, I'm creating my own path to a bad future. I'm reducing the amount of time that I'll be able to live and I'm also hurting others. But, if I make the good decision of staying in school, I'll be able to have an education, earn good money, and have a good job.

Hobbies

I have a couple of hobbies and they include: playing soccer, doing gymnastics, drawing, listening to music, sleep,watch TV, eat. I started playing soccer when I was in 1st grade. My dad used to play friendly games against other teams and I liked watching him play. I would always play with him and he would teach me tricks and I love watching it with my mom. I also played soccer my whole elementary and last year of middle school. I stopped playing for a while but I still really like soccer. I also love to listen to music. I practically do that all day. I love to listen to: One Direction, Eminem, A$AP Rocky, Taylor Swift, Drake and a bunch of others. I like to sleep at least 2 hours during the day and the whole night. Along with soccer, I really like to do gymnastics. I've been in gymnastics since I was in 2nd grade and I have practice twice a week at YMCA. I actually don't know why I decided to do gymnastics but I'm glad I did. It's been 7 years and I get to do a lot of performances and be in competitions.
