Secrets
Secrets are being told every day. Secrets are important concealed information that one or more people have that are believed to not be told/shown publicly. If someone has been told to keep a secret, then that person has been chosen to be trustworthy of that secret. Secrets bond people's relationship together and means that someone can trust you with something that could be personal to them or someone else. Secrets are also very often thoughts and feelings someone has kept to themselves. Secrets that have been kept for too long could cause you to forget something important that you were trusted to remember, or you could regret yourself for never admitting your secret.

Greedy Behavior
Over the course of the past recent years I have sat back and observed the behavior people use to express themselves towards others. I noticed quite a majority of people who express common displays of avarice and insecurity. Commonly shown by teens and children; they tend to become easily discouraged when they cannot have whatever it is they want, and chooses to act out or demand approval of getting what they want. The reason for this display of greedy behavior could be explained by lack of discipline, or could be caused by domestic abuse or mental disorders.

Why do we fear what we do not know?
I believe people fear what don't know because they are afraid to step out of their comfort zone to oppose an unfamiliar task. The unknown obstacles people face tends to deter those that are least courageous and prepared for the obscure tasks ahead of them.
An example of this would be the relationship between home owners and a snake catching service; The home owners contact the snake catchers to remove pest snakes from their property in order to make their home a safer environment. The snake catchers have dedicated much practice in handling and studying the identification of different snake species, therefore, are most trusted with handling the situation. Home owners are unprepared and too careless to attempt this unfamiliar task by themselves.

What do I Value Most
I value the freedom of creativity and the ability to accept people the way they are. You can understand a lot about an individual by the way he/she thinks, things that he/she draws, and even the music that inspires that person. Everything that makes a single person feel comfortable expresses their individuality one way or an other.

Persuasive techniques
Corporations and product developers use three different persuasive techniques to appeal to consumers and to persuade them to buy or support something. One is appealing to entertainment, therefore, it makes people feel good about the product they are buying. The second is more informative, which is a technique used to list facts on why the product is necessary and that you should buy it. The last technique uses any other ideas that would make as many people to buy their product instead of other leading brands, even if it meant criticizing other corporations to do so.

Opinion: Best Persuasive Technique
There are many techniques to persuading different audiences to buy/support a product or corporation. I would say that interests that most persuade me are ones that often pay me back in some way, such as investments for example.

Inspiring Speech
I was once told an inspiring speech by an elderly family relative at a family reunion. I never knew the man before nor cared much about asking for his name at that time. The man stood up before everyone to announce his family's honors and values despite the struggles and hardships that made their way. He tells of how he has watched his grandchildren grow and why family is essential in our lives.

Pilgrim Myths Source Guide Summary
In the article, History.com Articles of the Pilgrims, Will Bradford tells claims of early pilgrim myths and discusses their origins. The author uses historical records and images to assist with his statements about the topic. The author's purpose for writing was to educate the younger generation on interesting historical facts and illustrations that once inspired the early colonial America. Will Bradford's work was significant to the audience because it extends the knowledge of what people already know about the pilgrims and their myths.
