Gentle Wake-up Calls By Steve Pavlina: In February 2018 filmmaker Kevin Smith (aka “Silent Bob”) suffered a massive heart attack and underwent emergency surgery. He’s less than a year older than me, so he was only 47 at the time. Afterwards he switched to a vegan diet and dropped more than 50 pounds. In his latest film Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, he also made his character Silent Bob vegan and weaved that transformation into the plot. It’s great to see how much healthier and younger he looks now. Life gave him a major wake-up call, and he accepted the opportunity to make some real lifestyle changes. I’m glad he’s sticking around since I love Kevin Smith movies. Sometimes I find it hard to relate to people who don’t. In framing the coronavirus situation, I’ve noticed that many people are also framing this as a wake-up call, but usually not for themselves. They see it as a wake-up call for the world, for politicians, for voters (other than themselves), for the healthcare system, for people they’d label as idiots, etc. So the invitation isn’t personal most of the time. While this is understandable, I invite you to look for the personal wake-up call in this situation even if you don’t think you need one.

第二節 (滿分25分)
My eyes were filled with tears. I couldn’t believe it. The girl who I was breaking my back to be friends with treated me as a fool. I remembered how many times I’d used the word myself just to fit in, and it made me feel even worse. Sara said, “Elizabeth does things like that to a lot of people. You didn’t deserve to be treated that way, and nobody else does either.”
“You’re right, Sara,” I said. I thought of all the times I’d laughed when Elizabeth had made fun of someone else. It only bothered me when she turned her sights on me. I should have stood up to her a long time ago. I stopped hanging out with Elizabeth since then. The word Coco will always serve as a reminder that I need to stay true to myself and never compromise my values to be friends with someone.
