“Character matters most.”

Dale Murphy

Reflection:  Dale Murphy shares with us that character matters most and that is really true because people who do not have character are people that no one really wants to be around with. For example, if someone isn’t really friendly, respectful, or caring then nobody is going to want to be around them. If someone is using drugs at a party or wherever then that is not character either. To me having character is to have a lot of different personalities that defines who they are. For example, if someone chooses the right, doesn't do drugs, and doesn't do things they shouldn't be doing then that shows that this person is wise which is a part of somebody’s character. There are a lot of things that can happen in someone's life that can build character like having to face your fears builds courage, doing the right thing or learning from the consequences of doing the wrong thing builds wisdom, and opening the door for people and saying please and thank you builds respectfulness.
