1. This quote helps me to reflect on what is in my control to change and what is not. It motivates me to do my part.
2. Serenity means being calm and not troubled. Courage means strength in the face of grief or pain. Wisdom means using common sense and insight.
3. I find strength by praying, journaling, and talking to trusted friends when times get hard.
4. I work hard at forgiving others when they make me angry. Sometimes it takes me a while to let it go.
5. I really need to think hard about whether or not the thing I'm struggling with is in my power to change. I also realize that struggle can be good. The struggle that the caterpillar goes through in protruding out of a cocoon is necessary in order to prepare his wings for flight. In the same way, the difficulties that I've faced in life have developed strength, compassion, and compassion in my life.

This quote means to me that for me to grow in life in need to change some things for my self . For me serenity means to see life in a different view , courage means to stand up for what you believe in and never give up and to me wisdom means to have better judgement on the things I may not personally like. when things get hard I look at someone in my life that hasn't necessarily accomplished their dreams and tell my self its a bad day not a bad life. Just cause I don't like something they've done doesn't mean their a bad person, I just see it as a flaw that they have , and everyone has flaws, that's just something everyone has to look past. Sometimes in life youll come by things you dont like that maybe you can change but instead of changing it and looking at it like its something bad i see it as a blessing, something you got that everyone might not have.

1) This video helps me to understand the meaning of life and growing
2) The video also helps me understand what growing up is like and what struggles you can have at times. Serenity and courage and wisdom to me means support from others but also support from yourself.
3) This video also let people know that you can complete the struggle, never give up when your half way out of the shell. Take a breath and keep going.
4) I can accept other when they are angry because maybe you can help that person out with what they are angry about.
5) If I don't like something that is required to be in my life I would have to deal with it and figure out and easier way to deal with it and accept it in my life.

1.How i think of Serenity is having peace and peace is what my life tries to rely on.

2. Serenity means to me like i said it means peace and relaxation to me. 2a. Courage to me that is being the bravest you can possibly be in everything that scares you. 2b. Wisdom is the knowledge you gain when you do something and achieve something you never knew you could achieve or when you do something or think of something that was never discovered and was just discovered by you.

3. When things get hard for me I push and shove my way through and fight till the end no matter what it is. whether it be fighting with my dad or doing homework. I push myself through and tell myself i have to do this.

4. I usually let it go and wait till I feel they are ready to talk about what happen. I'm pretty chill about things like this.

5. with my dad and his gf. She moved in and stuff got struggly last night so i made the decision to change my way of thinking and do what i do best and run away. that is why I am going swimming with my bf and his brother.

1) To me the serenity prayer means that there is hope and peace in the world no matter what is happening.

2) To me serenity means being calm and alone. Courage means strength in the face of pain or grief. Wisdom means having a good amount of knowledge.

3) I find strength when things get hard by thinking about what is happening and talking to my best friends about it.

4) I accept others even when I'm angry at what they've done by understanding that everyone messes up sometimes.

5) It's hard for me to be able to tell if I need to change something or accept something. I try and look at the whole situation and analyze what is going on. Then I try and figure how I can change or accept it.

1) It means to me accept who you are and try to stand out and not be afraid to be you.

2) Serenity doesn't really mean anything to me. Courage means being able to push through hard times or dong something you're afraid to do. Wisdom to me means knowledge.

3) I think of the positive outcomes that could show from completing what needs to be done.

4) I don't usually let people get to me and just pretend they're not there unless I know them.

5) Figure out if it is something I can physically change or not. If it is then I can probably change it. If not then I probably can't.

1- The Serenity Prayer pretty much means to me to always keep your head high. I think that things we can't change is part of life. And that it's nice it sometimes change the things we wanna change.

2- The words serenity, courage and wisdom to me the most mean living. If you have the courage to live and do the things you need to succeed you're going to get far. Wisdom I truthfully think it means like having faith in yourself.

3- I usually find strength when things get hard and rough for me I go to my mom and talk it out. She's always there for me to bring me back up on my feet. She's my motivation to keep going.

4- I sometimes am usually mad for only a certain amount of time. So if i'm angry at somebody I will eventually get over it depending on the person.

5- I truthfully just take it day by day like my classes I like only like 2 of them and right now i'm not able to change them it makes me mad and I can't make my own choice but the way I see it that's life.
