Good character is one of the most important attributes a person can possess. Ralph Waldo Emerson was a visionary during his time and he makes a good point in this quote. Other attributes such as talent and intellect are important too, but character completely overshadows them. To have good character is to show integrity, honor, discipline and other similar traits. Even if you are the smartest person, if you show no good qualities in you then it is useless. There is a very simple path to having good character. It is one that anyone can partake in. In order to have good character, one must always choose the right. Choosing the right is a way to guarantee a path to success. Also you will be liked more by those people around you and they will respect you. A great mind will only lead you so far, it takes a great soul to reach your full potential.

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.

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.
