Assignment 19-Don't be stupid- Sam Chavez

Sam? Stupid? NEVER. Best piece of advice I've ever received? "Don't be stupid." Now I know it seems basic and stupid but stick with me. This advice could be applied to any situation in life that one might ever encounter. It's universal. Really want to say something to someone that you think would be really funny but also might get you suspended? Don't be stupid. Really hungry but the only place on your path is a gas station that serves sushi? Don't be stupid. Go ahead, think of a situation where you could either do something or not, and you could tell yourself... don't be stupid. I first came across these words on a church trip to Indianapolis. We were about to head into the huge convention center with 25,000 teens our age and all our priest says to us, you guessed it, don't be stupid. Words of the Lord.
