I have learned to appreciate my parents and all the things they do for me and learned to appreciate and love myself. I try to do my best and with a good attitude. Through the Mission Generation text books, God has helped me developed my character and I have learned to value who I am. As obstacles have come and gone from my life, my attitude has remained more positive and have experienced significant growth.
The text books have been a very positive influence in my life. They taught me to take into account the good things in my life. See the blessings instead of focusing on the bad, will help me become a better person in the future. If I could give my classmates any advice, I would tell them to pay special attention to their education. Having a great education can help make a successful future for yourself. Also, good life training is important to having good character and is the key to success and well-being.
