What I think Mr. Browne’s December precept from the book called wonder “Fortune favors the bold” means that when you do something brave and bold and you step out, it could benefit you in the future. In fact, that reminds me of something brave that I had done before. I had once went snorkeling for the first time and I have to admit, I was a little scared, but in the end I got through, as well as find a golf ball, a crab, a crab’s shell, and a few fish. How did this little trip help me? Well, in class we had a big project to do and you could choose to study whatever you want, and I had found a few creatures that I studied and it helped me with the project. Basically, What I think this precept means is that if you sometimes risk doing something brave or bold, it could benefit you in the future.
