===A wise man once said "With one success a thousand failures lie forgotten, but with one refusal to try, a thousand successes may prematurely die." What the writer is trying to say here, is that when you achieve something you forget everything that you have failed but when you refuse to try, you would never achieved it. This quote can apply to peoples lives in many ways.===

===There are many different forms that you can look at this. For example lets just take a look at Martin Luther King Jr. A man that never gave up. Martin Luther King fought for what he believed in and now look at America, there is no segrigation people dont judge you by your color or how you look, and we have equal rights. Martin Luther King Jr. did not give up on his dream so why should you give up on something thats important to you?===

===It is important for people to put thier all in something, if they really want to succeed and acheive their goal. Therefore refusing to even try will not get you anywhere. There have been many situations where people just give up before they try and without even trying you will never determine if you were good or not. This happens to eveyone, everyone fails but that doesnt mean that the should give up!===

===**This quote also recalls another famous quote by David Viscott- " To fail is a natural consequence of trying, to succeed takes time and prolonged effort in the face of unfriendly odds. To think it will be any other way, no matter what you do, is to invite yourself to be hurt and to limit your enthusiasim for trying." What this quote is trying to say here, is that if you fail, you fail but the good thing is that you have tried and you can always learn from your mistakes. That is why we should not be afraid of trying even if we fail, because in the end you will succeed.**===

===**Life can be full of grand surprises. Some say surprises are the greatest joy in life. I can remember the time when my mom and dad gave me a great surprise. It was the most beautiful summer Friday ever and I was coming back from school. It was the last day of fifth grade. As I walked into my house I heard some giggling noises then it became silent "Mom, ya there?" Before I could take another step my mom,dad and 2 sisters jumped out, yelling "SURPRISE!" **My mom was holding a big wrapped box and said it was for me! As I opened it slowly something**** **started to move inside, my eyes got more and more wider and then, I fainted for half a second. I finally got my Black Labrador puppy that I always wanted, it was the most cutiest puppy in the world! I hugged my mom and dad and started to play with the puppy. "I'm going to name you Bruno" I said Then my mom reminded me " With great freedom comes great responsibility" and I knew that if I wanted to keep the puppy I had to take care of it and be very reponsible. After a couple of days it became harder and harder to take care of the dog sometimes I couldn't spend time with it because I came back from school tired, had to do my homework,chores and not to mention piano classes as well. That day I realized that its not easy taking care of a dog when you have to take care of yourself too. My mom was right it was a lot of responsibility in taking care of a pet. Getting a knew puppy taught me a lot of things that I hadn't realized before, all I wanted before was the puppy and didn't know that its going to be very hard. It changed me as a person and now I know why my mom got me the dog in the first place. Bruno was a great dog and my mom decided to keep him because I learned my lesson and the whole point of this. I hugged my mom, looked at Bruno and said " C'mon boy, lets go and play!"**===
