Why I Chose the term 'A Hero is Born Among a Hundred'

“A hero is born among a hundred, a wise man is found among a thousand, but an accomplished one might not be found even among a hundred thousand men.”

-Plato

I chose this quote because I think what he said was true, a hero is born among a hundred, maybe some of them are unrecognized or even forgotten. Plato was a Greek philosopher, and has many great quotes. I was inspired by this quote because like I said, a hero is born among hundreds, and maybe, the hero might be someone you know!

Dance for Peace

I think that what Matt is doing is really great, because being connected by dancing with everyone around the world is very peaceful to watch. It's like we have no worries, no racism, no sexism, no deadly diseases, no poverty and no unequalness. When I saw him dancing with the children from africa, they look so happy to be dancing with Matt. I think that what Matt is doing is quite unique, fun and brings a smile to it face when we see the video, from his funny dancing and all the people so happy to be dancing.

Flowers Blooming

I think that what the compliment guys are doing is really creative and friendly because maybe a person they were complimenting was having a bad day, their compliment might cheer them up.


I personally think that if someone just randomly compliments you while you're on your way to class is really nice. Once, I read somewhere that one girl was going to commit suicide one night, and a stranger just walked up and said that her hair was nice. She didn't commit suicide that night and it was just because of a little thing that somebody said, and that is why I think being nice/ complimenting other people is really important.

I chose this picture because when you get a compliment, it's like little flowers bloom inside of you.

Would you want your future to be decided by others ? Why or Why not?

I would never want my future to be decided by other people because it would really suck if my parents got me into a medical while I wanted to go into the Arts. It would also suck if my parents have an arranged marriage for me because freedom for me is really important, and I really need my own private time to read and all. If I lived in Jonas' community, my life would be really plain and boring, though their life is perfect to some people, it's not perfect for me. A perfect life for me would be going to rock concerts everyday and go out at night, and of course shopping. I think that in Jonas' community, there is no music at all and music is a really important part of my life, it made me the person I am today. Sameness really sucks because I really like being different from other people.

How Henry changed:


In the very beginning of the book, Henry was Will's enemy, and always had a reason to pick a fight with Will. When Ozymandias told Will to go to the White Mountains, a place without Tripods, Will ran away from home at night, Henry followed him, and Will had to spill the beans to him. Henry & Will, both didn't want to get capped, and Henry disliked the Tripods as much as Will did, so Will decided that he can come. When Will broke his ankle, Henry helped him, and didn't abandon him. Throughout the book, Henry became friends with Will and never fought with him again. In the beginning, Henry was mean, and was a bully to Will, in the end, he was kind and was also Will's friend.


I disliked this book because I don't read science fiction, I can read any genre, but only if there was romance, or any type of pets in it. Most of my favorite books are romance, and my favorite quote from A Walk to Remember is: "Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful". In the book, it is about adventures, and things that will NEVER  happen, I like books that make me believe that someone will always fall in love with you, even of you're unpopular, weird, and all that stuff.

Freedom

Freedom is very important in life because without it, we won't have a right to make our own decision. Without freedom, we would have to do what we DON'T want to do. Chapter 8 from the White Mountains explained freedom by showing that Eloise, her family, and the people of the Red Castle actually look forward to LOSING their freedom (by getting capped) Will, Henry, and Beanpole didn't want this to happen to them, and before they get capped, they ran away to The White Mountains for freedom. I think that the author wrote this chapter to show that freedom is important in life, and that some people don't have freedom. :)
