Sameness

There are two ways to interpret this word. The first way is by it's textbook definition, lack of variety; uniformity or monotony. The other way to interpret "sameness" is by giving it the synonym equity which means being fair to every one depending on their situation. This picture accurately represents equity.

So judging by the context  of the "sameness" blog post, I think the first option is what I'm supposed to write about. In school were all provided with the same clothes which is the school uniform.However most people only stick with the school shirt and have a jacket/hoodie above, for the school pats, the most common excuse is "I can't find my size". This leaves us room for hair cuts, personality and overall look. Most people don't go into personality and judge you straight off of how you look, but we can't say they completely ignore it. Speaking of personalities, looks aren't everything. Some people are popular for there sense of humor, others for how smart they are. In the end we shouldn't judge people based on their looks but rather their personalty.

Morals

I believe that sometimes or in some cases its okay to change your morals for a good cause. Using the example given to us " would you kill a mass murderer?" Here would be a great pace to break a no killing rule you've set for yourself. In this case you would be preventing so many more murders because of that one rule you broke. On the other hand you may slip into a hole of thinking it's okay because the one time you did it you got rewarded or felt accomplished. It mostly depends on the person if they have the will power to go past their morals once and revert back to them after words or if they can't escape it and will have new morals replacing the old ones.

Mohed

What is theme of the video. The video starts off by talking about Mohed when he was in his child hood. He lost both of his parents and went to live with his grandma. Mohed was no rich man. He was very poor so his grandmother wanted him to be a shepherd but Mohed thought otherwise. Mohed wanted to go to school so he denied his fate of being a poor shepherd and walked 10 miles every day to go to school on his bare feet. The only problem was... he wasn't enrolled in school. He would walk those ten miles everyday so he could watch the teacher through a small hole in the wall. Eventually the teacher noticed and he let Mohed come in and join the lesson everyday. Mohed was an excellent student and he was so great that it struck jealousy into the students. One day the students dug a hole and pushed Mohed into it. Mohed escaped but vowed never to be pushed around again, But one day he got a scholarship to study abroad in France. When he arrived in France he was broke and alone. He barely understood his professor but tried hard to any ways. He worked in vine yards making $15 a day to put himself through college. He felt the need to do something, anything so he took the chance of investing in a dyeing scaffolding company. The company is now one of the best scaffolding companies in the world. The theme of Mohed story/journey is to believe in yourself. Mohed went from zero to a hundred not because he was inheritably rich or famous but because of his hard work.

The message

The quote basically says that every story/situation has two perspectives. By a "different lens" the mean through another person's eyes. A great example of this is if someone owes a guy a lot of money but he knows that person can't afford to pay him back so that guy chooses not take that person not to take that person in to court so he lets him go. The following day a third person owes the newly released person no more than a month's salary. The newly realest man chooses to send the third person to court and that third person ends up in jail. A regular person who is looking in to the story would say that newly released man has every right to do so, a person who knows  the whole story would say the newly released  person had no right to do so because he owed a man a fortune and got away with it. The quote also says that how you respond is what matters. I agree with this statement because as I mentioned in my example that the newly released guy wanted the money the third guy owed him. This shows that the newly released guy didn't believe he was off the hook so his first response to the first person he meets is to take the money so if anyone asks he can at least make back a fraction of what he used to owe. This example was an example given in the bible.(Mathew 18 bible verse 23:35).

One Thing No One Knows About Me

This post was hard to do because I'm not secretive at all. I'm usually open to people about myself but one of the few, few things people don't know about me is how many different school I've went to. My first school (not counting pre-school) was Continental. I spent two years in Continental which were kg1 and kg2. To this day I remember the principal Saniah Nemar. The only reason I remember her was because she used to pull students ears and once made a boy in 11th grade at that time cry because of how hard she was pulling. My second school was Elite and I spent 3 years there.  There was two sides to the school, American and British. I was in the British curriculum. So I spent 1st-3rd grade in Elite. The third school I went to was Windrose Academy. Windrose was by far my favorite school. It had some of my best friends there but the education system wasn't all that. Now I'm in C.I.S.E and my parents promised me this is gonna be the last school I go to. The whole point of me talking about is because no one realizes It's hard to keep friends and heartbreaking when you spend 3 years building a friendship and have it torn away from you 3 times in a row. Hopefully this is the last school I go to and I won't have to go through that same process again.
