"I know that as humans grow older, their ideals are hard to change. But try and be better, try and make a difference." "What we can control is how we can develop our character, how we handle the information the world around us gives us". Really like those remarks. I have shared a lot on what I think too. Keep sharing your perspective. The more you learn the better it gets. You are good at expressing yourself.

Also "We lived a life believing the things other people taught us".. great job. beliefs can either be based on fact... or what we have been conditioned to believe. Excellent work. I may use these quotes at some point in time and reference you. Really like how you are trying to provoke thought.
