Why is a friendly refusal preferable?

Answer:

Because a friendly refusal does not diminish the self-esteem of those who propose something.

Explanation:

A friendly refusal is made in a simple and gentle way, without destroying anyone's self-esteem and showing reasons that allow this refusal to be made. This all maintains respect, understanding and well-being, both for those who proposed something and for those who refused. In this way we can say that a friendly refusal is preferable, because it does not create an uncomfortable situation.

My Hero Project

Heroes are everywhere around us. A lot of kids look up to heroes because they save lives, they are wonderful role models, and they are great examples of good people. Some of the main heroes we see today are police officers, firefighters, doctors, and many more. I have made up my own hero. His name is Reyota and he gets his powers from the greek gods. He is very powerful and he can harness his powers from any humans, or objects. Reyota goes on a magical journey to defeat his evil spirits. He uses his powers to guide him through the way. His mother is being held captive and he is trying to save her. This makes him a hero because he goes on a journey to help someone in need that he truly cares about.

One day a hero was born, Reyota. He was always making friends and cherished his mom so much. He was playing with his friend, Michael and they were playing in the backyard and Reyota’s mom was bringing them lemonade since it was really hot outside. “Kids I have some lemonade for you guys!”, Reyota’s Mom exclaimed. The kids ran from the treehouse to get their lemonade, ‘thanks Mom!” Reyota exclaimed. The children had loved the taste of the lemonade. ‘Wow, your Mom makes fantastic lemonade”, Michaeal said. “Thanks! I’ll tell her later.”, Reyota replied. They finished up the lemonade before they were about to head back to the treehouse. Then suddenly a black hole appeared out of thin air. Reyota’s Mom had come outside to check on the children but she was pulled into the black hole by this transparent thing that had a weird, domestic face. She had been gone for over a week. Reyota kept thinking of ways to save her but nothing worked. He went outside to get his mail but then a huge cloud struck over him. “BOOM!”, The thunder roared. Reyota was sunken into the clouds. He saw a giant person standing there, watching him. He also saw a big city and the air smelled wonderful.

“Hello Reyota, I’m Zeus, God of Thunder. I noticed that your mom was captured.”, Zeus said. “Well yes, but what do you want with me?”, Reyota asked. “Your special and your mom was captured by your evil spirits.”, Zues said. “I'm special? What do you mean by that?”, Reyota asked. “What I mean by that is, is that you were born with a special power. Didn’t your mom tell you?, Zeus asked. “No but that’s really cool! But what are my powers exactly?”, Reyota begged. “Your powers are out of this world. You can fly and harness anyone’s powers around you.”, Zeus explained. So Zeus trained Reyota how to fight and how to use his powers so he could save his Mom.

Reyota had grown to be older and he became best friends with Zeus. Reyota’s mom had been stuck in the underworld by Reyota’s evil spirits. He went on a quest to the underworld to rescue his mom. He was walking in a strange forest when he came across this hairy beast. “Who are you and what are you doing here!”, The beast demanded. “I’m looking for my mother”, Reyota said. “Oh…” The beast said. “She was captured by my evil spirits.” Reyota mentioned. The beast showed Reyota a magic mirror that reveals the future. Reyota saw his mom being tortured. He was astonished but he thanked the beast for showing him what they were doing to his mother. He left the forest and he was ready to find his mother.
Reyota found himself being in an ice kingdom. There was a huge ice castle. He thought to himself, how will I pass through this monster, I can do this. I just have to use my powers wisely. He touched the ground full of ice and he felt all tingly inside but he felt stronger, He fought the beast and defeated him with ease. He went into the castle but he saw these blue creatures.

The creatures were called the “snow keepers.” He asked them how to get through the underworld but they said he had to speak to the queen. He walked up to her and he saw her sitting in a tall, enormous, icy, throne. He bowed to her to show his respect. He asked her how to get to the underworld and she said, “walk down to the third corridor and take two steps to the left and you should find a portal to the underworld”, The Queen said. “Thank you,” Reyota replied. He followed her instructions and made it out of the castle. He entered it and his mom was screaming. He removed the chains that were tied around her neck. He rescued her and took her back to earth. “Wow, thanks for rescuing me son.” she said as they were flying in the air. “I missed you so much mom” he said. “I missed you too,” she replied. Reyota flew back into the clouds after he kissed his mom goodbye. This was truly his new life.
Reyota was brave. He saved his mom and his plan went through its course. This makes him a hero because he goes on a journey to help someone in need that he truly cares about. Reyota’s real journey had just begun.

witnessed this horrible exhibition. I was quite a child, but I well remember it. I
never shall forget it whilst I remember anything. It was the first of a long series
of such outrages, of which I was doomed to be a witness and a participant. It
struck me with awful force. It was the blood-stained gate, the entrance to the
hell of slavery, through which I was about to pass. It was a most terrible
spectacle. I wish I could commit to paper the feelings with which I beheld it."
