“Right is right, even if everyone is against it;
and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.”

-William Penn

A similar quote to this one has previously been given. Basically it is telling us that if we choose the right, it is always going to be right no matter what. Choosing the right will have positive outcomes for us and those around us. On the other hand if we choose the wrong negative outcomes will occur for us. Choosing to do the right thing should always be a number one choice, no matter what the circumstances around you are. If no one is choosing to do the right, you should set an example and lead the way by doing something good. This could be sticking up for someone who is in trouble. If everyone is doing something bad it does not mean you should jump in and join them as well. Wrong is wrong no matter what is going on around you or the people who surround you. The people around you should not be an influence (unless good) or should they be deciding your decisions for you. There are various examples of this quote seen in everyday life. The first example of the first half the quote could be if a student is watching someone get bullied and no one is there helping him out. If the student steps in and helps he would be choosing the good even if everyone around him is against him. On the other hand the second half the quote can be given an example as well. But this time at a party. Let us say that everyone at the said party is doing drugs, just because everyone else there is doing and getting drunk or high, does not mean you should be doing it to because it is wrong. Just because everyone is doing something and everyone is for it, does not mean that it is right.

Soil Toxicity I choose the topic because it is something i am knowledgeable and because the information is still fresh in my mind. The soil around our community has been infected by various toxins, one of these mainly being lead. Lead is naturally found within our soil along with other metals such as Zinc and Arsenic. Lead is measured in a unit known as parts per million. Parts per million, or ppm for short, is a conversion for milligram per  cubic meter. The normal range for lead is currently at about 15-40 parts per million according to the EPA. After a experiment was performed we realized that the homes within our community have around 115 parts per million of soil, which is above the american average. According to the EPA, once lead reaches 400 ppm then it becomes a danger to us and once it reaches 1200 ppm then the area needs to be closed off as it become a serious health hazard. Although the results were not that high, it was still  alarming. Lead has a negative impact on

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder” Thomas Carlyle A man with no goal in life will get nowhere. A boat uses a rudder to guide itself and the people on board. Without a rudder the boat will have no direction and no guidance. Even if it wanted to set out somewhere, it would not be able too. A person without any goals in life will be the same way. Without any goals a person will have no direction in their life. They have no guidance and will not know if they are on the path to success. They will be un aware if their actions are causing them any harm or good. A goal is more than just a goal. It is a path set for us, a path that will guarantee us success. By not having a goal we would not know where to go. We will not know what actions we need to take. Ultimately, we will be lost with our lives. Lost in the world with no real sense as to what we are doing. We will be alive but not living.
