“Dare to stand alone.”

Thomas S. Monson

Reflection: This quote by Thomas S. Monson says that we should dare ourselves to stand alone. Standing alone not by isolating ourselves from the whole world but to stand alone for what is right. We as people sometimes tend to stand alone with people that are a really bad influence and instead of standing alone for what is right we decide to stay with those people.  If standing alone for what is right was easy then everyone in the world would be doing it but it's not it is probably one of the hardest thing for someone to do. An example of standing alone is if you are at school and in lunch with some of your friends and then all of a sudden your friends start making dirty jokes or using foul language or doing something that they should not be doing then you need to step away from that group and dare yourself to stand alone. Thomas S. Monson says “Dare to stand alone.” we all at one point in our lives need to make the decision to stand alone when it is needed to do it.
