Rachel's Challenge
« on: October 07, 2009, 03:09:46 pm »
I'm not sure how many of you have heard of the shooting at Columbine school in Calorado, but about a month ago at school we had an assembly about it. It happened about nine years ago I think, and I'm not going to go into detail on it, but one of the female students name Rachel was killed during it. She really loved making others happy, and did whatever she could to include people, so that they would feel happy. Anywaaaay, she had written in her notebook five things she wanted to challenge people to do.
One = eliminate prejudice by looking for the best in others.
Two = Dare to dream - set goals - keep a journal
Three = Choose your influences - input determines output
Four = Kind words and small acts of kindness - HUGE impact
Five = Start a chain reaction with family and friends

I remember when Columbine happened..... A few years back I heard about this and thought it was a really good idea.

I always try to complete random acts of kindness to people around me. It just makes people happy and it takes hardly any work to do =]

I guess you forgot Kip Kinkel, Oregon's own one-man teen Columbine.

Have Fun

As a martial artist it's part of my code to show kindness and respect towards others.
One cannot truly live life without having a sense of honor.
