A Promise

“A promise must never be broken.”

-Alexander Hamilton

Alexander Hamilton

No one should ever break a promise. If you make a promise than you need to keep it. It doesn’t matter how big, small, important it is, you need to keep it. Promises mean a lot to people. They put trust into what you promise and they rely on you and your promise. If you don’t keep it, it’s kinda like you were lying because you said one thing and didn’t do it. If you know you can’t keep that promise then tell the person or just don’t promise at all. Promises are a huge thing. It may not seem like it but if this promise may affect your life in the future then it matters. I know promise is just a word and it shouldn’t really mean anything but a lot of people take it to heart. This one word can really affect your life and others.

Goodness

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

-Henry David Thoreau

When he says goodness, he can mean a whole lot of things. Goodness can be being kind to people, having a good spirit and personality, helping out others and telling the truth. Goodness can be a lot of things as long as it’s true, right and good. If you invest in being good and being kind hearted and true, you will never fail. There may be consequences if you tell the truth of something that’s bad but you will learn from it. If you choose the right path and be good and truthful, you will be happier and there’s a better chance your life will be better. It’s more likely that you’ll succeed. So it’s better to be good. It’s better to tell the truth and be kind hearted and hard working.

Sound & Good

“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound (not good)” -Joseph Smith

Joseph Smith

What he’s saying is that what should be popular is being good. Nowadays people are into doing bad because they think it’s cool and they think they’ll become popular for doing so. It shouldn’t be that way. People should do good. We should make the good people popular and the bad unpopular. What’s so cool about doing bad? You just get in trouble and you’re a bad person. Doing good and doing what’s right should be more important to people. People should find being good cool. That’s what everyone should be doing other than doing bad and getting praised for it.
