Ambition?
Ambition, the motivation of the world, allowing people to complete their life dreams, and maybe even better the world; but is it always a positive thing? I believe not, ambition just as it is, is a good thing, having the drive and motivation to do the things you want. However, there is a point when that ambition can just become pure insanity. When Ambition turns negatively, for example, when someone wants a position of power so badly that do immoral, or illegal things to get that position, this is when ambition is no longer a positive thing. Negative ambition may never go as far as murder, or coup, but certain immoral acts revolving around ambition could lead to it.
Does a time period affect morals?

Morals? Ha, who has those anymore? But, who didn’t have those at one point in time. Time period defiantly affects morals. Looking back into history we see a degeneration of morals. In earlier times, drinking, smoking, sex; all these things weren’t a part of your everyday society, they weren’t openly talked about, and defiantly not advertised. Take a good look around today’s society however, and you might be a little shocked, and embarrassed. Sex, alcohol, smoking, drugs, can be found in almost every common conversation, billboard, advertisement, and internet site. As the times changed and new things introduced, people become less affected by it, and creating a moral degeneration. I can’t speak on these things because I myself am a great example of the new generation and new morals. My parents despise smoking; however I’ve been smoking for two years now. Sex, and don’t sugar coat it pretending it doesn’t happen, it does. Hello, teen pregnancy? My grandparents are constantly having talks with me about how in their day this and this didn’t happen! I say, as people progress, things that are supposed to be not talked about or done, are done just because of that reason. Which is why I believe there’s such a moral degeneration throughout our times and different standard social morals.

Ignorant Word Vomit!

So today were sitting in English Class, and Mrs.Mcdaniel is off on one of her silly rants. Telling stories of past and just kidding around with us, but today, I do believe I heard the best saying that I have ever heard in my life. Mcdaniel was talking about a old memory of her child hood, and about an old friend of hers who added her on facebook. When on said persons facebook, she said she saw absolutely "Ignorant Word Vomit!" about the schools and everything else. It may not be that funny to you, but something about that saying is hilarious to me. I cant wait to use that saying during an arugment or disagreement, It's going to be great!
