“We are who we choose to be.” -Green Goblin

I chose the quote “We are who we choose to be.” which was stated by the Green Goblin in the movie Spiderman. It is important to live by this quote because you can’t let other people tell you who you are going to be. People need to b who they want to be. It is only your decision, not anyone else's. Here are a few people who i think live by this quote.

The first person that lives by this quote is Bruce Jenner. He chose to become Caitlyn Jenner. She knew people wouldn’t approve of her decisions but the choice was up to her. Research showed, Jenner was uncomfortable being a man (The Full Story). No one knew about Jenner wanting to become a woman. He kept his feelings about being a woman hidden. …show more content…

Jennifer has always wanted to b a nurse. Jennifer stated that she chose to be someone who cares for and supports others. She said that everyone deserves to have someone to look out for them (Mckernon). She has been studying hard to become a nurse to help more people. She is still a very supporting mother as well. There were many people supporting her decision. The main person supporting her was her mother. Jennifer stated the her mom was always there for her. She even helped her get into school for the nursing (Mckernon). Jennifer also encourages others to become who they want to be. “Advice that i would give to someone who is choosing to live by this quote, would be to stay strong” (Mckernon). As of now she is supporting her five children and their decisions to become who they are.

Other people who i think live by this quote would be gay citizens. Many children in schools who are gay are being bullied. Adults are also being criticized for choosing to be with same sex. Those people don’t change how they are just because people tell them it’s a sin. Or because people criticize them everyday. Being gay isn’t really a choice, people can’t help who they find attractive whether it be same sex or opposite sex.

As you can see, many people live by this quote. Don't let go of who you want to be just because someone else doesn't approve. How you live your life is not up to anyone but yourself. All that matters is that you are happy, because you’re going to be the one who is living your life. Be who you choose to

    Why does one choose a career in nursing? There are usually several reason one may choose to become a nurse; however, nursing is one of those professions that often chooses the person rather than the other way around.

While it is true that one may receive the title “Registered Nurse” by going to school and passing an exam, this author believes nursing is something that lives inside a person; it is an inherent desire to heal, protect, advocate, and serve.

    These lessons and traits I have taught myself, have helped me become a better person with a dependable future. Forgive all who wrong you, love your family and friends, but love your enemies more. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Remember that obtaining perfection is impossible in your life on earth and remember that you show who you are through your actions, not what you look like. Be grateful of your current state; you are alive and can change the world and all who inhabit it through your actions and words. Help, give, and pray for the less fortunate. “If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”-Jesus Christ.

    This quote has made a vital impact on my outlook and understanding of life. As embarrassing as it is for me to admit, it used to distress me when I thought of growing older and the changes I will have to make when age dawns upon me. perfection seems to exist as an illusion that conceals reality; made true only by our ignorance to deception. Billboards gracing striking models showcase covetous unblemished skin, when in reality they are airbrushed, deceitfully perfected. However, we still find ourselves buying the showcased product, with visions of being ‘perfect’ floating in our minds; we do everything in order to make our fantasies come true without truly knowing, seeing, or accepting our self-limits and most of the time, our false expectations are crushed.
