''I have been asked what I mean by 'word of honor.' I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls-walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground-there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word or honor never to cross it. Can I get out of that circle? No, never! I'd die first.''
Karl G. Maeser
Having honor is very important. When you show honor it shows the type of person you are. You can show honor in your everyday life. It also affects you in school. An example for when you're at school is when your friend asked you if you can help them with their homework at 3:00 pm in the library. Its your choice to show them honor by going to the library and meeting them. If you don't show up that just being rude and not showing honor. An example of how you show honor in everyday life is when your parents ask you if you could wash the dishes. They are counting on you to do them. Once you do them they will be happy and proud of you. That is showing honor. When you show honor it describes the kind of person you are. Don't be afraid of showing honor. You're doing the right by being honorable. Choose the right and be honorable and dedicated. You will feel good once you've done it.
