1. Parents are a child's first teacher.
I say this because a child's first teacher is not when they end up going to pre-k or a day care it is that parents are a child's first teacher from the time they take them home from the hospital. Parents are always teaching their kids the difference from right and wrong and teach them manners and how to go to the bathroom, how to wash their hands. I feel that it is always important to look back and remember or try to remember at least all of the lifestyles that your parents have taught you.
2. Be accepting and treat everyone the same.
Growing up I have always been told to treat everyone the way I would like to be treated. Ever since I could remember my parents and teachers would say that over and over again. It is important to remember you don't always know what other people are going through at home and that a smile could cheer someone up without even realizing it! I always try my hardest to make sure that everyone I am around is happy!
3. Technology is the future.
Every day technology is improved in some way, shape, or form and I have been using technology from the time I was a little girl. Many parents will not allow their children to either play video games, or a game on their phone but the truth of the matter is by the time their children are in middle school or high school mostly everything will be used through technology. It is important for our future societies to get a better understanding and knowledge of some of the basic steps about technology.
4. Never hold back and always ask questions.
I was always told ever since I was a little girl to always ask questions when I had any. Thinking back on this now, I couldn't agree more. There have been plenty of times when I was too scared to raise my hand and ask a question about a quiz or test so I would not. Today I realized that all of your questions can be answered if you just ask. Don't ever hold back from asking a question because there is an answer for almost everything!
5. Believe in yourself.
"Follow your dreams, believe in yourself and don't give up." - Rachel Corrie. Never doubt and always believe in yourself. Tough times will always happen but it is for ourselves and others to help us push through and stay positive and know that everything will get better. "Sometimes you've hit a low, stay hopeful. Sometimes your on top of the world, stay humble." This is the meaning of the lokai bracelet and I feel that it has a very powerful meaning.
