Now there could be many meanings for that quote, that is my interpretation but lets hear some others.”helping people in need”-Devin Nix “try to overcome your goals” now this is closely related to i thought also thought but he put it as a goal and i put it manly as i challenge but a goal is something you want a goal is something that you most likely want a changing also something you most

So i have to do it all over again and it is so hard not to respond but this is my example for fighting a battles to win it. We all face survival a couple of time but not the people that are poor for example we fight for food, water, and love from our parents and we fight to stand out but we still think we blend in. We think we want to be the popular kids with their expensive clothing and their I phones and Samsung but think about it do you really want to be like them. If you were like them you would fight to be the dominant male and or female all the time. But their is another thing for fighting for survival giving up when you start a war you must be willing to give up a lot of things.

War is a trivial thing, Most of the population would agree with the Colliers when they say, “war does bring out the animal in men.” It is brutal and blunt, Mr. Meeker agrees when he says”Have you ever seen a dear friend lying in the grass with his skull cut off, brain sliding out like wet oats?” but boy is it necessary.

    Cesar Chavez voiced his opinion on why society should choose a nonviolent response instead of violent in a religious article on the tenth anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination. As a labor union organizer and civil rights leader, Chavez understands how the use of nonviolence is powerful by experiencing the effects of peaceful protests to get a message across and attaining effective change without having to resort to violence.
