For the first quote it that was presented to us it stated "Ambition is a positive desirable trait in a person". I completely agree with this, ambition is definitely something everyone should acquire throughout their life towards a goal. One time during summer two years ago I really wanted new bedroom furniture. My was all scratched up pink and child-like. I found the one that I wanted and it was a lot of money like $700 and I never saved up anything like before. So, overtime I began accumulating money whether it was from babysitting jobs, mooching from my dad, or doing chores. Eventually, I raised enough money to buy the furniture and I was so happy because it was something I did all by myself. Ambition also has to do with mental capability, meaning whether or not if you have that I think I can attitude towards life. This relates to Macbeth in the passage that we read today in class. Now, it is not in the most positive light, but it still refers to what I am saying. When Macbeth's wife is trying to convince the Macbeth to do it, but he doesn't think he can, but with enough encouragement and influence from Macbeh's wife he believes he can do it, and we all know that he ends up doing so. So his ambitious goal is succeeded.
Hey Kaylin,
