What do you feel is the most important thing in life? What makes life meaningful? Does living a meaningful life necessarily mean being financially successful? Does not having a lot of money make you a failure as a person?
The most important thing to me in life is to be happy. This is important because when your happy everything in life seems to go along much easier. I think that life is meaningful because you have family to be around and care about. Also I dont think that u have to be financially sucessful to live a meaningful life. And i say that because you can be the most sucessful and still be sad.

Pretend that your parents informed you that you would be moving to live in Japan at the end of the month. What are some difficulties that may arise. How difficult would it be for you to live there and why? Do you believe that those difficulties would be eased with time, if so how? Now compare your thoughts on this scenario with some of the difficulties you imagine people immigrating to this country come across. Are the problems similar to those you would encounter if you were told you were moving to Japan?
I think the difficulties that i would face is leaving my football team because we have grown to be a family. I have been through alot with them and because i am a key part to the team it would hurt them and me. Another one would be leaving my girlfriend because I would be losing the most loving and caring person in the world. And i would also be breaking a promise to her and to me that would be the worst part.
To me none of these difficulties would be healed over time because i probably wouldn't find anything to provide the thrill that playing football with my teammates do. Also i dont think that i would be interested in playing sports again. My girlfriend could never be replaced because she's the only girl i ever loved and i would heartbroken forever. Also if i came close to meeting someone i would think about her too much and that would cause me to get depressed.
I think the travel would be just as hard for someone coming over because they are losing alot too. They have to learn a wholle new language and get accustomed to a new lifestyle.

Who are the three most important people in your life? Why are they so important? Do you believe that you are as important to them as they are to you
The most important person in my life is GOD. Because without him in my life i would be dead right now. I believe that to him i am just as important because I am like a son to him and that he wants to keep that son safe. Also he is important to me because he keeps me safe at all times.
Another important person would have to be my mother. Shes the one that takes care of me and looks out for me. Even though she sometimes pushes e to the point of wanting to detest her i still love her. To her i am just as important because she can count on me to do anything for her and am always the one person she can always rely on.
Another person would have to be my sister. Whenever i see her i get a smile on my face real fast and thats hard to do sometimes. She is always around causing some form of mischief but that doesnt affect me at all. To her am probably just as important becaus am always taking care of her and doing whatever she asks me to do. Every now and then she'll say she loves and that shows me how much she appreciates me being around.

Often in our society, a person is labeled a Hero for his actions and contributions. Describe the characteristics you believe a hero must posses and why you believe they must posses them. Cite examples that may strengthen your point.
Characteristics of a hero is someome that displays a positive attitude that someone who is younger can adapt to. They should be able to teach you things that can help you stay out of trouble in life. Another thing that a hero should is be willing to fight for what they know is right. And not do it because it makes them seem cool.
A hero should be brave enough to do something like rescue someone out of a burning building even though there aren't people around to glorify them for doing such an act. They should sometimes be willing to risk severe injury for the welfare of others.And also a hero should be able to take care of the people that are around them so that they stay safe at all times.
Thats why my hero has always been my parents because they have risked injury just to make sure we were safe as kids. They didnt care if people recognized for it as long as we know that they are. Also my dad would do anything possible to make sure we were healthy and would sacrifice important things just to be with us.
