i agree with what your saying when you are committed you should be all the way in no matter what challenges you may face

Christopher Valdez 3A
9/2/2022 12:23:36 pm

Exactly it means you shouldn't let things push you around or get to you.

Riana Thomas 5B
9/2/2022 06:23:19 pm

I totally agree with what you're saying because you shouldn't give up or slow down on what you're doing. Life has challenges so you shouldn't give up on the spot then that means you didn't accomplish something that you love. You should always do things that you love because then you are going to give up easily.

Desiree ware 3A
9/2/2022 09:29:01 pm

Yes I agree, when your commited to something go get it, but expect for it to be some challenges along the way. You have to overcome those obstacles to get to the prize or reach the prize.

Mya Espino 7B
9/2/2022 10:51:08 pm

I agree with you. You shouldn't let something that you're scared of slow you down doing something you love.

A Giles 2A
8/31/2022 10:12:35 am

I think it is saying that then you are committed to something there should not be a reason to take you away from it. When you are that committed to something and believe in it, there should not be a reason why you are not doing it anymore. You should keep going in what you believe.

Mackenly Mitchell 6B
8/31/2022 12:58:01 pm

yes, I agree. We shouldn't allow the setbacks in life to discourage us from reaching our goals. :)

Janelle Melgar 6B link
8/31/2022 03:58:29 pm

yes I agree with you. We should always have a positive mindset when it comes to things we are committed to.

A Green 3A
8/31/2022 05:42:37 pm

I agree with this. The only thing stopping you from achieving greatness is yourself.

Zariya Boyce
9/6/2022 10:54:22 am

I agree as well, we are always so nervous or anxious to do what we need to do to be successful. We need to believe in ourselves to accomplish success. We need to stop being so afraid and just go for it like they say "a close mouth doesn't get fed".

Bralin W 6B
9/1/2022 08:56:31 am

I agree, we should always stick to what we know and not let anyone lead us astray from what we love the most.

joshua martinez
9/2/2022 09:17:44 am

i agree , because you have to stay strong in your belifs no matter the obsticle

ryan brown
9/2/2022 11:29:49 am

you should also learn when you have to back down from certain obsticles.

Meleya D 1A
9/2/2022 03:25:15 pm

I agree, when committed you need to believe !

Zariya Boyce
9/6/2022 10:46:08 am

I agree as well. I think that what this quote is trying to explain to us is that we need to constantly attempt to discover the matters that pull us, and to escalate the ones sturdy ideals so irrespective of how loopy the winds of lifestyles blow at you. You need to stand tall, firmly and now no longer effortlessly out rooted.

Riana Thomas 5B
9/2/2022 06:05:56 pm

Yes I do believe that when you are committed to something it should not be a reason to get it taken away from. If you want to pursue something you love keep pushing yourself to reach your goal. Don't just stop because you are stuck or you don't understand.

Kevin Jacinto 6B
9/2/2022 10:35:05 pm

I completely agree with you, because when one is committed there is nothing that can stop one from doing what they desire.

Mya Espino 7B
9/2/2022 10:52:11 pm

I agree. When you are truly committed to doing something, you shouldn't let anything get in the way of what you believe in.

Mackenly Mitchell 6B
8/31/2022 12:50:00 pm

This quote reminds me to take pride in the things that keep me grounded. Through the many obstacles I concern myself with everyday, It's always calming to remember my blessings. Regardless of what I experience in life, I know who I am and who I come from.

A Green 3a
8/31/2022 05:41:20 pm

I agree with this comment because you never know when you wont be able to do the things you love anymore.

Geoffrey Ojeh B6
9/2/2022 09:37:52 pm

I feel like your response so correct and how most people live by that quote

Bralin W 6B
9/1/2022 08:59:18 am

I agree, we should never let obstacles block us from achieving our goals.

A Giles 2A
9/1/2022 02:14:31 pm

I agree with you because when taking pride in something you love it'll keep you calm and on going.

Elizabeth.Adame 2A
9/1/2022 08:24:04 pm

I agree with you because not everything you will do lasts forever. If you're committed to something you really love, it's hard to let it go. Being committed to something keeps your priorities in check.

Morgan Johnson 5B
9/2/2022 11:02:09 pm

I agree, you must keep yourself grounded to keep in control. You must keep your guard up. No matter the obstacle.

marina santos
9/1/2022 09:36:57 pm

I agree with because this quote was leaning towards self identity and realizing that you control of yourself. if you know who you are then you are grounded in some kind of way.

ryan brown
9/2/2022 11:28:09 am

that's true, there are many other meanings to the quote. think about what else It could mean.

Janelle Melgar 6B link
8/31/2022 03:52:35 pm

To me this means that when you are far into something, you shouldn't let fear or anything negative bring you down. You've done so much to get there, so don't let negativity get the best of you. You've made it this far to just give it up.

A Giles 2A
9/1/2022 02:15:40 pm

I agree with you because when you are so far into something you are taking pride, and you should be giving up on something you feel good about.

Elizabeth.Adame 2A
9/1/2022 08:22:16 pm

I agree with you because when you're committed to something, you don't want to give up because you have been progressing well. If you were to give up, it would've all been for nothing. When you're committed, you have a less chance of giving up.

Nox ( Katelyn) Sears 2A
9/5/2022 01:46:06 am

I totally agree with you. Once you are set in stone on what your doing, and you know what you are going. Nothing should bother you and make you want to give up.

Keyuante Sheffield 2A
9/2/2022 10:33:03 am

I agree because if your committed to something enough you'll fight to achieve it

Shamarian Samuels 4A
9/2/2022 10:41:21 am

i agree with you because majority of people in this generation didn't gain success their first time. They had to keep pushing no matter the challenge. And they gained success after many time of failing.

Meleya D 1A
9/2/2022 03:26:25 pm

Yes ! never give up.

Desiree ware 3A
9/2/2022 09:35:01 pm

Yes, when you are commited to something you're going to have negativity along the way, but you have to learn how to block it out because when you let the negativity get to you all that you have worked hard for is gone and down the hill, in other words you lose motivation.

A Green 3A
8/31/2022 05:39:14 pm

To me this means that, as long as you know why you are doing what you're doing, like a sport or schooling, you should not be swayed by any conflicts that come your way. I think that this is a very good point because there is no reason for somebody to think that they can not do what they want to do. The only thing stopping you is yourself.

Kevin Jacinto 6B
9/2/2022 10:41:21 pm

I completely agree with you, because as long as one believes in themselves and their core values there is nothing that can stop you from your goals.

Bralin W 6B
9/1/2022 08:52:32 am

The message that I got from this quote is that you should always stick to what you know and to not let anyone knock you off your path. This is a very good quote to show someone when they may be straying away from the good things or if they are just lost. You could also just remember this quote or save it as your wallpaper so you can wake up everyday knowing that no one can make you stop being you. This also means to not let fear stop you from completing things.

marina santos 7b
9/1/2022 08:57:06 am

This quote in my opinion reminds me that if one knows ones self so deeply then they shouldn´t be accepting the negative influence to change theirselves.The quote gives a good point about self-identity, and awareness amongst yourself. The so called wind is the ngeative energy or negative influnece that will pull you apart and take the things that make you more you.

rj Suarez
9/2/2022 10:36:21 am

i agree with you because i feel that a person should only care and listen to what you feel about yourself and not worry about what anyone else wants to say about you.

Geoffrey Ojeh B6
9/2/2022 09:34:46 pm

I also agree, and I want to add on with the quote because you have to battle hard and overcome many obstacles to reach your goals and live a satisfying life.

G. Castaneda 2A
9/2/2022 11:50:19 pm

Negative energy is not a way to help you surpass your goals, Negative energy will hold you back and you'll get nowhere with it. Self-identity is a major part of which helping yourself being the better you. Bringing yourself up is always the way to accomplish your dreams and goals.

M'kaya Banks
9/1/2022 10:59:10 am

"when the root is deep the is no reason to fear the wind". I think the quote is talking about a tree, because when the roots of a tree are deep in the ground nothing can take it down. I also feel like maybe the is talking about a person, because when you are strong and confidence in yourself nothing can bring you down or make you feel less of yourself.

Elizabeth.Adame 2A
9/1/2022 08:19:19 pm

What I think this is saying is that when you are fully committed to something, you are not afraid of the challenges it comes with. It reminds me of when you fully believe in something,you're willing to take the backlash that comes with it. When you are committed to something you continue doing it no matter what anyone else says.

marina santos
9/1/2022 09:40:06 pm

I agree with this comment because if you are so committed into something then all the challenges are worth being able to do what you want. Commitment comes with challenges and everyday obstacle but i believe if it´s worth it then it´s worth it.

joshua martinez
9/2/2022 09:13:54 am

Always try to find the things that you grew up on and to develop those strong beliefs. So no matter how crazy the winds of life blows at you, you will stand tall. But also its saying not matter how life blows random obsiticles always stay grounded and beileve in your self .

rj Suarez
9/2/2022 10:34:41 am

i agree because i feel that you shouldn't let any little thing bring you down if you know who you are as a person.

Christopher Valdez 3A
9/2/2022 12:31:39 pm

Exactly obstacles and blows shouldn't affect you and you should stay grounded.

Keyuante Sheffield 2A
9/2/2022 10:31:18 am

Theyre saying if your roots are deep like your committed to what your doing the wind or no matter what comes at you youll push through it t get to your goal

rj suarez 3a link
9/2/2022 10:33:22 am

This quote really makes me think how to not let anything or anyone bother if you believe in yourself. I feel that if you have pride in yourself then nothing anyone could tell you will bring you down. When you know who you are as a person any little thing that people may say to you to bring you down will not since you are self aware and know you are better than what they say.

Shamarian Samuels 4A link
9/2/2022 10:34:09 am

I believe the quote is trying to express that if you commit to something you should be all the way in. You should expect anything that comes with it even when it becomes challenging negatively or positively.You should be committed all that way in.

Ryan Brown
9/2/2022 11:25:08 am

I agree with, when the root is deep-------there is no reason to fear the wind. If your family has already done something like skydiving then you shouldn't fear skydiving. Since your family has the experience and can share what they know with you.

Sydney Griffin link
9/2/2022 12:37:41 pm

You have a great mindset when you were saying how family has the experience and can share what they know with you

Rylie Brown 7B
9/2/2022 11:03:53 pm

I agree with the example you gave because once you tried something you shouldn’t fear it.

Dontre Eley
9/2/2022 12:18:43 pm

i agree , because life challenges only makes you better later, than you already were.

Christopher Valdez 3A
9/2/2022 12:29:41 pm

The quote when the root is deep..there is no reason to fear the wind means you shouldn't let things get to you or conflict with your goals if your committed. If you have a goal you want to achieve you shouldn't let obstacles stop you from getting to it. It also means you shouldn't be afraid of obstacles.

Sydney Griffin link
9/2/2022 12:31:16 pm

This quote shows that people want to express how they are. It can allow others to keep going, if they feel angry or sad. Be capable of believing that you are raised and taught, even if you change your mindset.

Nox ( Katelyn) Sears 2A
9/5/2022 01:48:30 am

I like that way you thought about this quote. I didn’t think about it in the way of expressing yourself. I can see how you thought of that. With how what you’re taught to keep going even though as you grow i up your mindset changes

Joyceline Kamtala 2A
9/2/2022 12:31:59 pm

I agree with what the quote says, because i think its saying that if you are set on something, and have worked hard for it, than you shouldn't worry much when you're going through tribulations.

Meleya D 1A
9/2/2022 03:24:19 pm

You shouldn't be scared of the obstacles that come your way. If you are rooted deep into the ground, you'll be unmovable. There won't anyone or anything that could remove you from your position.

Riana Thomas 5A
9/2/2022 05:51:26 pm

I feel like the quote is saying if the challenge is hard you should not break down and give up. I say this because when people get stumped on something that they don't know they tend to give up. I believe that when you overcome the challenge then it should be a breeze.

Morgan Johnson 5B
9/2/2022 08:25:24 pm

When you ground yourself into staying calm and collected. You will not be in fear the obstacle are thought coming your way. You wont move out of reaction,and simply stay in place.

Rylie Brown 7B
9/2/2022 11:02:16 pm

I get the not being in fear of obstacles coming your way because it has a sting hold on people.

Desiree Ware 3A
9/2/2022 09:23:18 pm

The meaning behind this quote for me is since the root is the foundation of our life's we can stand a little rain or wind, because our root is already deep, meaning we have been through our ups and downs, so because of that there is no reason to fear the wind.

victoria t
9/6/2022 11:00:25 am

i agree, because in life you have to go through some barriers before you can get the chance at something great.

Geoffrey Ojeh
9/2/2022 09:32:00 pm

I agree with the quote because you have to battle hard and overcome many obstacles to reach your objective and live a successful life

Morgan Johnson 5B
9/2/2022 11:20:51 pm

I agree, in order to overcome obstacles you must overcome them. You can overcome them no matter how big or small they may be.

Mya Espino
9/2/2022 10:50:17 pm

I think this is saying that when you're committed to something, you shouldn't be afraid of the challenges that come with it. Through the ups and downs at the end of the day, there may be a rainbow at the end of the road. You shouldn't be scared of taking challenges just because of the difficulties that come with it.

J Blackmon2A
9/2/2022 11:37:15 pm

Especially if you put your mind and heart into it you'll be ready for challenges coming at you.

victoria t
9/6/2022 10:59:18 am

especially when you don't let anything or anyone stop you from getting what you want.

Rylie Brown 7B
9/2/2022 10:59:45 pm

I think it means when you have enough knowledge and confidence then you’re not going to be afraid of making mistakes or failure. It’s going to be harder for something to knock you down.

J Blackmon2A
9/2/2022 11:35:05 pm

There's only one way of truly failing and that's if you don't try your best

Kevin Jacinto 6B
9/2/2022 11:00:53 pm

I agree with this quote, because if one believes in themselves and has confidence on whatever they want to do. There is nothing that will be able to stop them from achieving what they want. So basically if you go into anything knowing you can crush it and be successful, than one can only know haw far they can go in life.

J blackmon 2A
9/2/2022 11:32:24 pm

I feel this quote is saying don't be afraid of new challenges.You should always have faith and confidence in yourself. Don't be scared of criticism from others.

G. Castaneda 2A
9/2/2022 11:44:36 pm

This is true you should never be scared of criticism, You always have to have confidence in yourself and always think that you will do good.

G. Castaneda 2A
9/2/2022 11:39:41 pm

I believe that this quote is saying if you already committed to something and/or said you will do something, you can't be scared to accomplish it and have things in the way that will scare you. You have to be able to surpass these hills and accomplish your commitments and dreams. Also I think that this quote is saying that the fear in the wind is an obstacle to help you surpass whatever your trying to do.

Nox (Katelyn) Sears
9/5/2022 01:42:52 am

I think it’s saying when your doing something you are good at. People saying you aren’t good enough should sway your thinking. Because you are already so deep into it. Nothing should stop you.

Victoria T 7b
9/6/2022 10:58:09 am

I have a feeling he's saying that if you really commit and know you want something, don't be afraid of things that challenge you and don't let them hold you back.
