    Courage means doing something even if it can be difficult and fearsome. In my opinion‚ everyone in this world had gone through hardships‚ and some people chose to give up on their dreams.

    found in the novel is to not judge people‚ my community has helped me learn this. When there were kids my age‚ they were always boys.

    For me I have a memorial stone‚ and that for me would be my cleats. My cleats are the Nike Hypervenom Phelon II. They help me define myself on the pitch‚ or the field. On the back of the left shoe‚ near the heel‚ I have a small‚ black cross in sharpie. The reason I do this is because whenever I do anything I need to remember God. It is a reminder of my bible verse Philippians 4:2‚ “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” The cleats are my memorial stone not because they helped me beat

As dangerous as pride is‚ it is just as hard to spot. When it comes to diagnosing my heart‚ the disease of pride has a challenged me to identify my sickness. Pride has infected my vision‚ causing me to view myself through a lens that distorts reality. Pride has made my ugliness in sin as beautiful and commendable. Those comfortable moments when

    so I when I get back the next day I have to try and catch up on the classwork I’ve missed. But‚ there are a lot of things I could do better to make sure I stay on top of things.
