Moral Compass

Our moral system depends on ether what has been pounded into our heads by parents and other people who can have affects on our lives or what we have done and or learned from our culture in the short time we have been on earth . All people no matter who they are have some what different ideas of what morals are , and I think as long as the person respects there own morals and doest try and force them on anyone and they respect others for who they are and not what the believe in I think that every ones beliefs are equally acceptable. Who is to say what is right and what is wrong and what moral guidelines we should abide by ? There are different people from business men to street people , and they not going to have the same morals . A street person who has stolen his whole life to get by would have no problem taking a wallet found in a parking lot, while on the other hand a person who has had everything set out for them and is making 5 to 6 figures a year would probably look in the wallet for id and call the person to give it back . I really really hope that my morals wont change at this point I think that what i believe in makes me some what good part of society , but if they do chance it will because of what job i get or who I might start to hang out with , besides that your morals should not change that much because they are they things that show other people what kind of person you are.
