We will watch a Spoken Word Poet discuss what she knows to be true. She will make the argument that we all bring knowledge that is either similar to others or our knowledge will teach others something new. It is in what we know that we find our individual poetry. Words have power. They allow us to take our thoughts and give them shape. We allow them, our thoughts, to find rhythm, meaning, and a place when we combine them with other words. It is the artful placement of language that gives it power.
We all come from someplace different. We may reside in the same town, but our place in it is unique. It is unique in perspective. My view of the world is very different from yours because of my age, my gender, my level of education, my experiences in the world. We need to accept this and appreciate this.
What I want you to do is list ten things you know to be true. Look at my examples. Create your own list.
My list is as follows:
I know this much is true:
1. When we look back on our lives we see moments where choice was vital, and we may not always like the choices we made. The goal is to not make the same ones again.
2. The people we meet change us.
3. Parenting is hard. Helping to shape the lives of others is incredibly hard and important.
4. The more we let others into our lives, the richer we become in knowledge.
5. There is always going to be someone who is stronger, faster, smarter. Humility is necessary.
6. On the other side of fear is courage. Courage is pushing through fear.
7. Children teach us to pay attention to the world. Never out grow the inner child.
8. Knowing who you are and sticking to your beliefs is vital. Do not betray yourself.
9. Holding yourself and others to high expectations is a must. However, we must forgive ourselves and others for imperfections.
10. Kindness should always be shown. We never know how someone's day is going or what their life may hold. Always show kindness!

-Stephanie E. 3rd period
1. God is real therefore love is real because God is love. Love triumphs over all. One can always be respectful and loving regardless of the situation.
2. Logic takes precedence over emotion. Tears should not fall upon what is already drenched in your spittle.
3. Contentment is an attribute of character not of circumstances. The end of the world will probably be noticeable by some black out of the sun or nuclear rain. Anything less than that should remain in its proper place.
4. There is what we can control and what we can't. If we hate what we can't control we become dissatisfied and blame both men and God. Rather we should take responsibility for what is within our power and accept what is not. (Stoic principle)
5. Lack of self-control is the worst human flaw. There is nothing worse than not being in control of oneself. Intentional crime is done out of rationality and thus less formidable (though more punishable) than crime done out of glutton craze.
6. Aesthetics take precedence over a large portion of every other quality. It is said that one "should not judge a book by its cover" but one would not want to be caught lugging around an ugly-covered book regardless of its content. Also, extremities destroy aesthetics. Passion always desires the extremities. Passion is never aesthetic and always ugly.
7. You will have some good days and some bad days. Schedule out your bad days for when they will have minimal impact. Start out such days with stubbing your toe, spilling your breakfast glass (making sure it contains a non-staining liquid), locking your keys in the car, etc.
8. My little sister will always be the prettiest girl in the whole wide world.
9. Without belief in God and/or the higher abstract we are just animals engaged in mindless disgusting passion.
10. Loving oneself is unnecessary and egotistical. It is better to shift such a responsibility upon someone else by becoming an irresistibly lovable person.
