Drunk driving

Eric Smallridge was convicted of man-slaughter because he had crashed into a car that carried the passengers Megan and Lisa. These girls had died instantly, and Eric was sentenced for 22 years in prison. It was a fitting judgement, but was not fully carried out. Renee, Megan's mother, had gone to the judge to ask that he shorted Eric's sentence in half. He did, and Renee had written Eric letters that told him that he was forgiven. He didn't acknowledge it at the time, but eventually wrote an apology letter to Renee for what he had done to Megan. Lisa's parents had eventually forgiven him to, and while he was still under custody, Eric went to local high schools to tell them about the dangers of drinking and receiving forgiveness.

Western Oregon vs Central Washington

There was a softball game between Western Oregon and Central Washington. Sara, Western Oregon's player, had never hit a home run, but then it changed when she hit her first in that game. There were two players on base, and with Sara, they would have gained three points. However, as she was running towards second-base, her knee began to hurt. So, instead of running the rest of the way, she crawled back to first. Her teammates wanted to help, but they couldn't, they would lose their point. She wouldn't have been able to enjoy her home run, but then, there were two players of the opposing team that ended up carrying her the rest of the way. Their names were Mallory and Liz. These two players from Central Washington had helped Sara get to home-base. It was amazing how they decided to help someone that they didn't really know, and how they even decided to help her. Though Central Washington lost by two points, it was an unforgettable moment.
