The speech John F Kennedy gave was trying to persuade people to exercise more and stay active and fit. We need to change our life style and the way we eat because sometimes we are so worried about work and school and other things that we forget to eat or we eat in a rush and then we are too tired to exercise and we just don't do it.

“Physical Fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body; it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the sounds of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know that the Greeks knew:that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong''

               - John F Kennedy

This quote to me means that you have to take care of your life and your health because if you don’t take care of it nobody else will take care of it for you.

“Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing.”           

                                                                -Chick Moorman

 REFLECTION: 

 Doing what is right and fair is always way more important than winning or losing because how are you going to win if you cheat and aren't fair during the game or in life and you can’t lose if you don’t try to win but sometimes winning or losing is not as important as doing the right and honorable thing.
