1: “love is a serious mental disease” this quote appeals to me because it has a really sharp meaning to it, it tells us how dangerous it is and how scary it really can be, this relates to global citizenship for many reasons like, work, neighbourhood or your home, love is everywhere we go but if we find one that we love it can be dangerous to fall out of it

2: “be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle” i chose this because the raw and realness of it is absolutely amazing it tells us to always be nice to strangers because they fight a war with themselves one other might not know about it appeals to me for my own personal reasons, the impact this might have with global citizenship is your neighbour, school, work and so many other places. the impact this has is a domino effect once your nice to one it carries on to whoever u meet wherever you meet them

3: “never discourage anyone, who continually makes progress, no matter how slow” this appeals to me because it tells us people work and make progress in there own paste, those who are slow, succeed too, this effects school in global citizenship because we work and often get stuff done at our own paste

4: “the greatest wealth is to live content with little” i chose this because it has a really good meaning too it, the meaning is that people don’t need money to live big and that the greatest wealth it to live without much money and just living completely raw and authentic this might relate to global citizenship because u meet others in your neighbourhood who may be the same way or u impacted to be the same

5: “good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions to others” I LOVE THIS i chose it because when you do good to yourself and show strength others see that and pick the energy up your basically there inspiration and again is a domino effect but without words itself this effects global citizenship in the classroom, home, work or anywhere else if u cut the garden and are good at it someone try’s and they enjoy it, you get An A+ in maths someone sees it and studies more
