INTEGRITY
What is Integrity?
To me a person of integrity is honest. Let's say one day, you find one hundred dollars in your school. Would you keep it, or would you hand it to the teacher? As an individual, to have high integrity you must do what is right. Take for example, you are a counselor in your secondary school and one day, you found your best friend breaking the rules. Your best friend begs for lenience, she promised you that she would never do that again. What would you do? Will you report her to the teacher or would you let her off? Most of us would have let her off, since she is our best friend. I mean, I would just pretend that I never see anything. But that is wrong. As a counselor, it is our rightful duty to report students who break the rules. We must be fair and just. But you would argue that we should give her a chance. But the harsh fact is that a person of high integrity has to do what is right. It is tough right?
Having integrity is perhaps the most difficult quality to achieve, but once you have achieve it, it is the most satisfying one.

MAXIMIZING
POTENTIAL
What is maximizing potential?
To me, maximizing potential means setting high goals for oneself.
Giving my best to whatever i do.
To make maximum use of my ability.
And last but not least, motivate myself.

GOD-FEARING

Not using his name in vain.
Thank Him for helping me when i need Him.
Thank Him for giving me such wonderful friends! :]
Thank Him for giving me such wonderful family members! :]
Thank Him for EVERY SINGLE THING! :]
And because of that I LOVE HIM LIKE HOW HE LOVES US! :D

This picture
represents TRUTH
What is truth?
When Pontius Pilate interrogated Jesus before his crucifixion, Jesus proclaimed that "Everyone on the side of truth listens to me." (John 18:37). To this, Pilate replied "What is truth?" and immediately left Jesus to address the Jews who wanted Christ crucified (v. 38). As Francis Bacon wrote in his essay "On Truth," "'What is truth?' said jesting Pilate; and would not stay for an answer." Jesus had earlier said to Thomas, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life" (John 14:6).
To me truth means not to lie and always be true.
When you did something wrong, admit to it, and not lie.
If you lie, you are not being truthful to yourself.

This picture represents
JUSTICE.
What is Justice?
Justice is making sure people are treated fairly and justly despite their race, religion, economic or educational status, gender, marital status, and so forth.
Many queer people fought for black rights as well as queer rights, because they understand discrimination and mistreatment. But they may not all actively get involved in fighting for feminist issues, or disability rights. Still, in their everyday comments and choices they may attempt NOT TO PERPETUATE harm on others. We've heard a lot about women's rights, black rights, aboriginal rights, gay rights, disability rights, etc. from the 60's through now. A lot of progress has been made in many ways, but we still have a long way to go.If someone robbed you, then they happened to be hit by a car (OK silly example I know) and they were caught and the stuff was given back - you didn't deliberately hurt them did you? so you didn't take out revenge. It was just an accident. But you can say they got their 'just desserts'.
To me justice means people treated fairly. Not being biased to either of anyone. For example, your sister stole something from the minimart, and was caught, and was sent to the police station. And you as a police, you should not help her, although she is your sister. She commited a crime, she has to be responsible for it.

the value Gracious
and Healthy Lifestyle.
What is Gracious and healthy lifestyle?
To me, Gracious and healthy lifestyle is having a good eating habit and and exercising every week. And the exercises are gracious. For example Yoga, Ballet and so on.
And healthy lifestyle is like eating the right food and not junk food as a habit.
I used to eat lots and lots of junk food when i was young.
Later, i realised that eating junk food is not healthy at all.
It not only makes you fat, but sick too.
So, from that day onwards, i stopped eating junk food and started to eat more vegetables.
Then, i realised that vegetables ain't that bad after all.
But , i still eat a little of junk food, just that it's TEN TIMES lesser than last time.
And one more thing, i used to be very weak last time, but now, after i stopped eating so much junk food, i became healthier and not get sick so easily.
And i think that eating junk food is so not gracious.
Instead, eating vegetables, fish, meat and other dishes, are alot more gracious.

This picture reprsents
the value
FREEDOM.






What is Freedom?
Freedom to me is just like someone getting freed.
For example, a guy goes to jail for maybe a year, and he gets out of jail, hence he is freed.
To me, that's freedom.
Freedom also means like you can do anything you want without people controlling you.
For example, your mum let you go out and not control you too much.
That's freedom.
Freedom also means that you have the right to choose.
The right to create for yourself the alternative of choice.
