" When i do good, I feel good. When i do bad, I feel bad." By Abraham Lincoln

What this Quote means to me is that if we do something good we feel good about ourselves because we did something right but when we do something bad we feel guilty. when you do good on a test you feel good because you know that you were able to do it all by yourself. When you score bad on a test you feel bad because you failed and you know that  it was all done by your hands. When you steal you feel bad because you know it was wrong but when you give a gift to someone you feel good because you made someone else feel happy. Your feeling are attached to your action, what you do you will feel in return. When you are kind to someone you feel like a good person by if you rob someone you feel like a bad person. Also what you feel influence your actions, for example when you feel good you feel like doing something good. When you feel angry or sad  you feel like doing something bad. Your feelings and actions is what makes you who you are today.
