These are the 3 magic keys that Stone has spoken to us about. By following these 3 special advices, we are establishing ourselves to have integrity. What is integrity, integrity is when you live your life choosing to do the right. The first key is telling us to have the courage to say no. This key is very important as by saying no we can limit ourselves to doing bad things. If someone offers us something that we know is wrong, we can use our words and power to express that we are saying no. The second key is to have the courage to face the truth. This key has to do with honesty and how we show it. We should always be honest, even if it may affect us in a negative way. By being honest we are always choosing to do the right, as honesty is the best policy. Lastly the last quote is telling us to always choose the right. This quote is, for the most part, self explanatory. It is telling us to do the right thing simply because it right, you may not like the outcomes of your decision but never the less you should still do it as it is the right thing to do. The last key is the most important as having integrity means doing the right thing, so in order to have integrity, well you have to do the right thing.

The first quote can be used as an example. If you are offered drugs or other illegal substances, you have the power to say no. By choosing to say no you are breaking away from the negative outcome and thus you are showing integrity as you are choosing to do the right thing.

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.
