Thought Questions and My Thoughts On Them

So I just took the most horrible Exam ever. To make myself feel better I'm going to post an update here. I was stumbling on stumbleupon when I happened to come to a site that had tons of pictures with questions that are meant to provoke thought. I've decided to post a few here, while in this computer lab right outside of my horrendous classroom.

The first one is this:

To this I would state the obvious. Our possessions, our money, anything of monetary value. Our societies are focused on getting the most money in the quickest way possible. We place our values of a person based on how much money they make. That's wrong on so many levels. People should place value in the things that matter, like a person's character and accomplishments. If someone makes a lot of money, in an illegal manner or from some other skeevy way, we still value them higher than someone who lives in a homeless shelter but works their ass off to try and save up enough to live in a house. Also, I think we should think highly of someone who does not have a great abundance of cash, but still donates their time and money to those less fortunate. They do more for others than athletes, who make millions of dollars, and then spend it all on cars, jets, booze, and babes.

Life isn't about how much money you make, its about how many lives you touch and the great deeds you leave behind. Living isn't about working to make the most money, its about experiencing what you can in the short amount of time you'll be on this earth.

Alright, onto the next one:

The one thing that I need to stop doing to myself would have to be making excuses. I need to stop making excuses for not doing things, or for not wanting to do things. A person can make a justification for just about anything, but that doesn't make them right.

This especially pertains to my new found inspiration from the last post. I've been chopping down my excuses on why I should eat a pizza instead of a salad, or why I don't feel like working out today. Even if I make those excuses, I still do the right thing. I might be less than satisfied eating the salad over the pizza, but I'm also not bloated and getting fatter either.

This goes along with my procrastination too, I need to stop making excuses and putting things off. The longer I wait to do something, the more of a concern it will be further down the road.

Alright, I feel a lot better. What are your guys' thoughts on these? Do you have different opinions? Do you agree?
