Every one deserves to have whatever they have unless they are thief or cheater. Only thieves don’t deserve to have what they have because they are not the original owner of what they have. In our lives there will always be times in which we feel as though we aren’t deserving of much‚ but we should not forget to how valuable

    As I wake‚ my mind starts to race. I start to think about my first time exploring the bottom of the ocean with my fellow Boy Scouts.

    Henry David Thoreau’s point of view on the elderly‚ based on a passage from Walden‚ is almost completely false. To say that the elderly have no worthy advice to give the young is absurd. While younger generations will always advance themselves further in technology and life‚ they cannot do this without the help of their seniors. Thoreau begins this passage by saying that what someone says is true today may not turn out to be true tomorrow; while this is sometimes true‚ it doesn’t mean that one
