"These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity:

1.  Have the courage to say no.
2.  Have the courage to face the truth.
3.  Do the right thing because it is right.    

W.Clement Stone

Upon reading this quote I came to the understanding of the importance of having integrity. That is for the reason that choosing the right can often be difficult for some people but knowing that  they chose to do the right can be one of the everlasting effects of making the proper decision. Like the example that was shown to us about the medical student who only received his diploma from all the cheating he did in his college exams. He did not have the courage and broke all the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity

Thanksgiving 

Upon researching the history of Thanksgiving what I found the most interesting is that the first thanksgiving's center dish was not the turkey we know now, but consisted of deer hunted by the Native Americans and seafood. It was until only after 1621 that the was introduced and it became a tradition after President Abraham Lincoln made it a national holiday. What I am thankful for this thanksgiving is my family, the love and support from my family always motivates me to do my best in my academics.

"Right is right, and wrong is wrong no matter the circumstance"

Yong-In S. Shin

In any situation, there is no justified reason for a wrong to become a right and vice versa. This can be applied to any aspect in life, there is no place that it would not be acceptable. For example, the situation of four football players at a closed convience store which was left open due to a issue with the lock. Instead of stealing and ransacking the store, they left money for the items that they bought.

"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it."

William Penn

   In other words, no matter how many times someone or yourself try to convince you that the bad deeds you are commiting are right, it will be always wrong. For example, if a person were to make the impression of not following the signs in a park or public road sign, then there would be wrong doings. Nothing can justify in doing the wrong things, if you know you are not choosing the right. There is no circumstances in which choosing the wrong can be thought as the best route for a person's life, it will only bring mournful moments in life that often leave a person regretting in not choosing the right, thus welcome a sad life of depression and regret.
