“A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself”
-         Noemi Trigueros
Reflection:
 Over time, we change and our attitude’s change. Our character is shaped by events and changes in life we could go from bad to good, from good too bad in a short time. We are influenced by negatives, but mainly no one turns negatives into positives. A person who chooses the right within himself or herself is indeed a champion because they fall and get back up, they admit their faults, but most of all they change the world.

“Right is right, even if everyone is for it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it”
-William Penn


Reflection: Everyone has their own vision of right. Everyone has their own vision of wrong. We cannot simply agree but launch debate.  In today’s world what is “right” is controlled by society, media or the government. Now, what is right? The government says “It is right for us to start a war for our benefits” but “It’s wrong for another country to start a war for their benefits” the topic is simply contradictory. Our vision of rightness is controlled and babbled by everyone except US. When we as human binges should think for ourselves and not just know what is right but to feel the right embrace in our soul. Those who do not let anyone or interfere in their right believes, are the ones who choose what’s right.
