Mrs. Vickrey Brit Lit/3rd March 29 2017 The seven Commandments (animal farm)
1. No Israelite shall lie
2. No Israelite shall steal 3. No Israelite shall curse 4. Israelites should always be thankful 5. Treat every other person the way you would want to be treated 6. No Israelite shall disrespect an elder 7. NO Israelite shall commit adultery I based my rules on how most people should live their lives. Some of my commandments reflect the golden rule. In life if you were to follow my rules you live a happy and constructive life. Each of my commandments are simple but powerful enough to grant you a prosperous lifestyle. My first commandment states that No Israelite shall lie, in my community integrity is key to a happy life for everyone in the long run. There is a saying that says if you lie you steal, and if you steal you kill. Lying is a root for many altercations making it a huge rule in my community. My second rule is one that feeds off the first and is just as important. It states that NO Israelite shall steal. If we were to live in peace then we couldnt have a community of thieves. A lot of people would become untrustworthy, but my commandments would make sure no one would take something that isnt theirs. My second Commandment is a part of the golden rule which makes it one of my most important. Cursing is a crude way of expressing yourself, so my third commandment is No cursing. Cursing just shows that you have nothing smarter to say and it illustrates how you go about yourself. If you wouldnt have the audacity to say in front of your parents then why would say it at all? Now everyone might slip up here and there but if you are a person who thinks cursing is cool or shows how serious you are then my community isnt a place for you. The fourth commandment on my list shines light on showing gratitude so you always be thankful in my community. It doesnt hurt to say thank you if someone does something nice for you or for the community as a whole. My fourth commandment also reassures you to be humble and to not take anything for granite. You should always be thankful for what you have because someone else might not be as fortunate as you. Commandment number 5 is one of the most important rules even know its not one of the first rules on my list. In order to have an equal society, everyone must treat each other with true respect. Kindness is key and if you wouldnt want someone to disrespect you then why do it to someone else. To have true equality everyone must be treated with equal meaning make this commandment a strong rule to inforce. Listening to your elders is very important they have been here for far longer than you have and deserve respect. The fact that they have been alive longer than you have automatically means that they have been here long enough to have experienced what you either have been through or what youre going through.
