Invisible Forces (Day 2)

Invisible Forces (Day one)

St. Francis of Assisi

For my Confirmation, I chose St. Francis of Assisi as a young adult he considered himself as a sinner. His father was a man of business and the last thing he wanted from his son was a man of God. Growing up in his life, he was treated like a king and people never minded on what trouble he caused and some people loved him as he spent his nights in wild parties. After his young life, he met a biographer and explained everything and Francis himself said, "I lived in sin" during that time.

One day he was walking through the countryside and came across a leper. He jumped down from his horse and kissed the hand of the leper. Soon after, his peace was returned and was humble again. Francis was filled with joy and felt the Holy Spirit in him. He turned back to the leper for his last waved but before he could raise his hand the leper has disappeared. From then on he always looks upon it as a test from God. His life was changed and that’s why I chose him as he turned into a humble man from a selfish man.

Making decisions

Scenario:

Emma has just made a neat new friend.  They go to town on Friday night and Emma notices that her new friend is shoplifting.  Her friend tells her that everyone does it and she should do it too unless she’s wimp.  

         What would Emma do?

A. List Options:

1 Emma should ignore her friend and find another neat new friend.

2 Emma should shoplift with her friends to get more clothes as well.

3  She should tell her parents/caregiver.

B Say what is right or wrong about each option.

Option 1.  The right thing is to not be influenced by the bad attitude of shoplifting.

Option 2.  The wrong thing is that she and her friend would have to pay the fine.

Option 3. The right thing is that she wouldn’t have any problem as she hasn’t been influenced.

C.  Say what would be the consequences of each option for everyone concerned.

1.The right thing about ignoring her friend and telling an adult is so she could not follow the bad influence that has been showed to her.

2. The consequence would be that she would pay the fine following with her new friend.

3.  The right thing to do is to call the police in order for them to pay the fine and so that their parents would give them consequences.

S. Say what values you think lie behind each option and tick those that reflect gospel values -  the values of Jesus.

1. Wreckless

2. Influence

3. Thinking about consequences

E. Say which option you would have chosen and why.

1. I would’ve chosen to ignore her and find a new friend, as finding a new and responsible friend is the right thing to do instead of being friends with a thief.

Summary:

Making decisions is the hardest challenge as the bad things may be hard to resist. On the other hand, the right choice is always the best decision as it’s not hard to ignore the bad influence.

Statistical Investigation

WALHT: write a survey using google form, use the feedback to create and display that date in pie graph and analyse the results.

This data tells me that  62.5% (⅝) preferred to have an iphone rather than using a telephone or an ipad as neither of the responses has voted for them.

From my survey I have found out that half of the responses favoured to have their meal in Macas other than the other fast food restaurants as neither of the responses like to eat in KFC and 3 of the responses likes to eat in Nandos.

The data tells me 62.5% ⅝ like other breeds of dogs, 12.5% ⅛ like Chow chows and a quarter prefer German Shepherds.
