AIC NSA Feedback Reflection (post #8)
In our closing statement for the AIC conflict, our NSA praised Saudi Arabia's group efforts the improve our own country. Starting with the bad, it was said that we were "off to a slow start" but as the game went on we were able to pick up our pace. Our NSA said that in the end we were able to come out strong, and stuck to our strategic goals statement. Part of our goals was to promote more acceptance in the country of Saudi Arabia. We achieved this, but there was a big lack of support of a large number of saudi men who were not pleased about this. We were praised however, for being peaceful about our reaction to the protests that the men of Saudi took to the streets. We were told that we had a successful game.

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none. ~William Shakespeare
This quote by William Shakespeare is great guideline of how you should live your life around other people. With these words Shakespeare teaches integrity. Integrity is very important because it is essentially the quality in humans that can help fight for and maintain peace. To know integrity is to know that not everyone you meet will be someone you like, but you can still accept them. Although you do know to trust the ones that you do like. It is important not to confuse the two. Most importantly do not do wrong to anyone. Global citizens live by these words in a sense that they are there to help the greater good of people. Although you may not like someone as a person, it is important to still look out for them. The idea of global citizens loving everyone is relevant too. The concept behind this quote is very fair, whole and with good intent. Which is that of the same intent of a global citizen. The most influencial people in the world, in a good way live by these words as a fundament. Imagine if everyone did, the world would be a whole lot of a better place to say the least.
