Had an awesome time at The Royal on Saturday! My friend and I went to the evening show. My favourite part of the show was Stacy Westfall and the Canadian Championship Show Jumping.

Opinion Is a Flitting Thing

The abominal snowman in his opinion would like to make a delicious sno-cone out of the little penguin's home. The little penguin might think the snowman's opinion is funny or maybe even scary. 



Opinions can be truthful. Other times there might not be any truth in it at all. It is not good to judge a movie, book or person based on someone's opinion. It is better to find out the truth for yourself.

The Golden Rule

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFUHYTczzS4
What is the message of the Golden Rule? Treat others the way you would want to be treated

Which expression of the Golden Rule do you like the best? I like the Christianity one. Why? I like it because it has a bible verse in it, and also God spoke those words.

What could things be like if everyone behaved according to the Golden Rule? I think everyone would be really nice and would not make fun of people. I think the world would be a lot more peaceful ?

Why is it that sometimes we don’t behave according to the Golden Rule? We may not think of the rule while we are being mean or rude. People can forget  a lot.
