Topical blog post #4

“Never, never, never give up” – Winston Churchill
This is my favorite quote when it comes to things that I want most in life. I try to live and abide by it every day; however, some days are much easier to keep the rule compared to others. What good can come from giving up? What good comes from never giving up? The answers are easy: Nothing good comes from giving up, and everything can potentially come from never giving up. The answers may be easy, but keeping the commitment is surely not. I understand that I haven’t been the best of students in my entire 19 years of school, but I want people to say "He never gave up" or "He never gives up" when they talk about me. I want my parents, friends, future wife, future kids, and every single person I come in contact with to recognize this characteristic in me-persistence. To persevere through all the trials and tribulations can only result in a greater appreciation and sense of accomplishment in completing the course I have set for myself. Therefore, I will "Never, never, never give up," ever.

A good philosophy, and one I'd like you to carry out by completing the assignments you've missed so you can pass this class.
