Spoonful of Positive: Stand Up
"Be an encourager, the world has enough critics already." Dave Willis
“The test of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority.”
"I allowed myself to be bullied because I was scared and didn't know how to defend myself. I was bullied until I prevented a new student from being bullied.

"I have learned that people will forget what you said,people will forget what you did, but they will never forget how they made them feel."
“You will never reach higher ground if you are always pushing others down.”
"Instesd of teaching kids how to deal with bullies how about we teach them not to be a bully."
