If there is beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.

Conclusion: If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world.

Chinese Proverb 

I agree with this quote because if one good thing happens; then another good thing will happen. And if everybody tries to have beautiful character than the nation and the world will have beautiful character. This is what will happen if every single person in the world would try like this then the world would be a successful, safe, and happy place.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness
Prisoner Eric Smallridge was convicted with a DUI and Manslaughter for drinking and driving; killing two girls Megan and Lisa around the age of 20. He was sentenced to 22 years in prison but when Megan's mother Renee asks the judge to cut that sentence in half the judge does. Megan's mother (one of the girls killed in the accident) forgives Eric because she doesn't want to hate him forever and she sees that he is really sorry for what he did to her daughter so she forgives him for what he did. They both talk to kids at school about drinking and driving and Eric gets out early from prison and gets to be with his happy parents eventually the other girls family forgives him to.
