Write about a truth you were afraid to accept.

 Prompt Response: A truth I was afraid to accept was that I might not make it D1. When I was a kid I wanted to be a pro baseball player and was dead-set on getting there. Now that I am more grown I have accepted that it probably wont happen. It is still a possibility as of right now but if it doesn't happen I will be ok.


Summary: Today we took notes on argument and Ethos, Pathos, and Logos.


Reflection: I think that accepting that things might not go how you want is a good thing, so you can make a backup plan.
