Student Success Statement

I think this quote means that the actions you do or say will determine what kind of person are you. What you do defines you and vice versa, what you do is who you are; what you are is what you do. Basically, what this is saying is that, everything you do will shape who you are. If you are always making jokes, then you are the class clown a goofy person. So, if you want to be a good person and show others, then do good things. If you want to do wrong, then be bad person like cheat and lie. But you should do the right thing and show who you are!

“ What you are will show in what you do.”

~ Thomas A. Edison

Poem Tis the set of the Sail

‘Tis the set of the Sail

Ella Wheeler Wilcox 1916

But to every mind there openeth,

A way, and way, and a way.

A high soul climbs the highway,

And the low soul gropes the low,

And in between on the misty flats,

The rest drift to and fro.

But to every man there openeth,

A high way and a low,

And every mind decideth,

The way his soul shall go 

One ship sails East, 

And another West,

By the self-same winds that blow,

'Tis the set of the sails

And not the gales,

That tells the way we go.

Like the winds of the sea

Are the waves of time, 

As we journey along through life, 

'tis the set of the soul,

That determines the goal,

And not the calm or the strife.
