I'm sitting down with my test in front of me, hands sweaty, and heart beating faster than the speed of light, as I look next to me and see the answer sheet to my mid-term exam. I stop and ask myself, "Should I put all my hard work of studying to waste a perfect grade?" Even though then I didn't know the words vires and mores I know they played an important role in my life.
Vires signifies strength of all kinds; moral, physical, and intellectual. My intellectual strength goes as far back to middle school. I was just learning the importance of my education. I was sitting in class not doing anything productive, and my teacher told me, "Life is like an exam, there are no make ups." This quote will forever inspire me to do better. It also shows me how important my time is and why I should put it forth something productive, rather than nothing. This is why every year I decide to take more advanced courses. It started with one and then just went on from there, like branches from a tree. This shows how I strengthen myself intellectually. I've gotten used to studying every night and putting an 100% in everything I do. I have grown to become a diligent hardworking young lady. My morals come from being raised by mother who is a firm believer of karma, what goes around, comes around and one who abides by the golden rule: "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." These have been essential to my life. I can distinguish between right and wrong.
