Is more important than winning or losing.”-Chick Moorman

They can feel bad about it, but in the end the winning team can congratulate them for being a good team. Instead of having the winning team insult them because they are better. It is better to play fair and square and be good about it. When people do this, they have a better relationships with others and identify them as good winners and losers. It will also show people that they know how to win and lose.

Being honest also helps you gain trust from other people. If you are dishonest, people would not like to trust you. Being honest can also keep you out of trouble. If you lie to someone like a teacher or parent and they find out, they would most likely punish you. If you are honest, they will thank you.

To do Good

“The best recreation is to do good”

-William Penn

When you are out of work or school, you can always come back home very tired. So most of the time you would want to do something fun. One thing to not do is something bad. For example, you could be having fun trick or treating or giving candy to kids. You mustn't be stealing or egging cars and houses. Instead you should just celebrate Halloween the way it’s supposed to be. You can also be doing other things like helping the planet. You can pick up any trash that is on the floor either at your house or street. You can work on keeping your area clean. You can go out and recycle or save more water. Instead of using a car to get to nearby places, you can walk or use a bike.
