To die with integrity (Kevin

I believe that it is way better to die with integrity than to compromise your faith, honor, and decency in order to live because if you don’t stand up for what you believe in then you will never have a purpose in life. If no one stands up for what he or she believe in then nothing will ever change. The Crucible Character John Procter didn’t want to lie to save his life because the document with his name signed on it would be posted on the church door where everyone in the town could see it and that would take his self-respect and his respect from the people around him and he would rather die than his name be tainted and be known as a liar. I would do the same thing because I don’t want to be known as a coward to everyone and coward to myself for the rest of my life just to breathe. If you choose to die everyone will remember you, as the person who always Kept true to his or her personal values and never compromised what they believe in and I will die as a brave, faithful and Honest person. I’m not saying I would die only because I want a good reputation judged by someone else but I would die because I would know that my life wasn’t lived in vein. I know that it is a tough decision to make when your life is on the line and I would have to think strongly about it before I make it but this is what I believe I would do if I were in this situation.
