                             The Honor Story 
                                     February 18, 2015

           A soldier walked in early in the morning to eat breakfast with his family. A few seconds later, 8-year-old Miles Etcher walked into the same restaurant with his family showing-off, the 20-dollar-bill he had found in the parking lot. When he walked into the restaurant, he saw the soldier. What Miles decided to do was write him a note, attach the 20-dollar-bill, and hand the money and the note the soldier. The note explained how Miles' father was a soldier and how his father died just a few months after Miles' was born. Now, the soldier reads that note daily and he tries to do very kind things for others because he was honored ans inspired that he went through something so beautiful.

          "Act well your part; honor lies." 


                      Alexander Pope

                         

Reflection: I really like how this quote gets straight to the point of the definition of what honor is. In addition, I enjoy the way the phrase was organized and well-defined. What I think honor means is basically earned respect. I believe honor is when you have done something right and you have earned respect for yourself.
