Villaverde, Jonas Jr. D.

How may an act be good or bad? What makes an act good or bad? I believe that a
good act is one that is ethical and morally correct, whereas a bad act is one that
will end in violence and harm. When I was in elementary school through junior
high school, I was always elected as the class president or a class representative
for organizations. At first, I had no idea what it was like to be a class leader; I
didn't know if I was doing it correctly, if I was responsible enough to do such
things, or if I was going to make decisions that were good or bad for my
classmates. But, over time, I've learnt how to be an upright and trustworthy
leader to my fellow students. I am always open to their suggestions, such as what
to bring to the Christmas party, how to improve our performance, or how to
tackle any internal problems in our class, and so on. That is an example of a good
act, not simply because it is required of a leader, but because it is right. I am not a
perfect leader, and I have made mistakes. I remember there was an event at our
school and I was tasked with choosing a participant from the class and many
showed their interest and raised their hands and I still remember that the people
that I chose is my closest friends because I saw their facial reactions that they
really want to join and that is why I chose them and it comes to the point where I
realized that I use my power as a leader to choose my friends instead of being fair
to my other classmates who also showed their interest and raised their hands.
And that is an example of a bad act because I used my power to benefit my
friends and for me it is not right to abuse the power of being a class president.
