                     The Generous Man 
                                                                 May 11, 2015


                        Patrick was roaming an airport bar when he spotted an i pad of the floor near a chair. When he opened the case, there were $13,000.00 sitting in the cover. There were not many people around anyone could of easily picked it up and left. Not Patrick Morgan however. Patrick grabbed it and turned it in to the authorities. The owner of the i pad was found and as a compensation, he gave Patrick sixty-dollars! Patrick received the money, gave half of it to a homeless woman and the other half to a co-worker. His boss then compensated him for his good acts and gave him $625.000. What will Patrick do with that money?

 "The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon."

                Dr. Laura Schlessinger

             

Reflection; Many thoughts ran through my mind while I read this quote. One of the thoughts that came to me was during these years people do things for you because they expect you to give them something in return when you do a favor or to pay them back. That is not the gift they should be valuing however. The gift, the gem, the greater thing in return that you should get is feeling good for what you did because you helped someone out in a way. The other thought that I was contemplating about was, I must learn how to appreciate what others do for me more because they gave some of their time to me and time can never be gotten back once it has been used or given.

  8. Work Permits 
  9. Digital Library Programs
  10. Transportation Services 
How will these services benefit you? 

        These services will benefit me because they will help me develop a stronger mind by enrolling myself into new things and becoming more responsible. These services will also benefit me because they teach me more things apart from what I learn in school. I can process and think outside of the box. 

Which of these services will you use? 

       I think all of these services are very beneficial but I have selected my top three. The first service I have chosen is the athletic/sports program. I selected this because sports are very important to me educationally and personally. The second service i chose was the digital library program. I really like to read and I believe this service will help me develop a farther relationship with books. The last service I selected was musical/arts partnership. I like this service because it seems interesting and I can learn a lot from it.
