“Carpe diem, seize the day, make your lives extraordinary.” is a quote from Dead Poet’s Society and this relates to me in many ways. Make the day yours, live life to the fullest. Make every day of your life worth it and don’t regret anything. Stand up to one of your biggest fears and make your fear afraid of you. Be different from everything and everyone else; be your own self and don’t be a follower, be a leader, be extraordinary and live your life to the extreme. I want to live my life to the fullest and be different from everyone and be a leader. I want to be my own self and make a person out of me. I want to be known by people for being different, and not a follower. I’m usually a follower and I never really thought for myself and I never thought of becoming a leader. I’ll do this by standing up for what I believe in and be myself. I always would be like everyone and I wasn't myself. Make your lives worth it because one day you’ll be “food for worms”, we all are. I will be different and make myself known for that and make every day of my life extraordinary and not regret anything because this will shape who I am in the future. My plans are to become a someone and not a nobody!
Nathan, always remember that you are a SOMEBODY! You don't have to do great things to be someone people look up to. Having morals and values makes you who you are and that's IMPORTANT!
ReplyDeleteNathan,
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I really like your post! I like how you added a lot of information and explained your thinking. I agree with you that everyone is different and that everyone needs to show who they are and not follow what everyone else tells them to do. Great job!

Great job Nathan. One thing you said in your post "I always would be like everyone and I wasn't myself." made me think. Does this mean you tried to chang your self to be someone your not? Or does it mean you act diffrently when around certin people? Or anything else?

Very nice post! I liked how you had a lot of information. How are you going to become a "someone" and not a "no one"?

Wow, I think you have a great goal. I think that everybody should try to achieve this goal. Who in your life has helped you realize you didn't want to be a follower, and that you wanted to be someone who is known?
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Nathan! I really like your post because it's well thought out and well written. I think you did a really good job writing this post. Do you think there is anything or anyone who is standing in your way of living your life to the fullest?
