War costs thousands of people their lives because of a simple disagreement. However because of this their problem is solved and things can change between the nations.

Yes. I Agree that wars costs alot of money, but sometimes the only way to get a point through in the government/ leadership is by citizens shedding thier blood until one admits defeat. Wars can be a cruel horrific thing , but sometimes thats the last straw in which we have to go through with it

Oops, almost forgot to make my comment I only relied. ._. Anyway, something I completly despise are phrases people say. Like what part of go break a leg makes sense?! Or, Hit the road. Like you want me to go outside and kick the street? But the, silver lining is that these are all old Proverbs. Hit the road is Latin for Let's go drive. LITERALLY. Its pretty cool.

A volcano has many ugly things like spewing ash and lava going everywhere.The ash cloging the sky and polluting the air and the lava destroying everything in its path like homes buildings and sometimes agriculture.After the mayhem the soil becomes rich in minerals so pretty flowers or plants in General grow.Since the soil is rich in minerals so it is good to farm and good for agriculture use

Spiders are extremely terrifying, to most people. They are poisonous and frightening. Some can kill you or give you extremely deadly illnesses. Though they kill bugs like mosquitoes, flys, beetles, and caterpillars. They can also be pets, like a tarantula. I once held one and it crawled up my arm, it was creepy... Did you know they can shoot out their hairs as a second defense system.

I agree with you. Fear is what people hate most because ultimately, fear is what everybody doesn't want and who wants something they don't want. But what the beauty is that fear is what people stay away from and sometimes you need to stay away from bad things for safety.

An ugly thing is discrimination. Discrimination is excluding others from activities like voting, education, etc. we had a lot of discrimination in America's past and still do, but the silver lining is that we are free from that; but just because we are free doesn't mean those past feelings are gone. I think the real ugly thing about discrimination is the aftermath. People become wary of each other because of the past and new relationships are prevented. Hopefully, all of us will realize out mistakes but also realize that we've made a change for everyone's benefit.

After watching CNN, I have become interested in the presidential race, I found out that Donald Trump is running for president. It frustrates me that Trump, the man who wants to stop immigration but has immigrants working for him, wants to govern our country. I don't think he is fit for the job. Quoting 'Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy', "If you are capable of becoming president, don't run for president."

Hurt is ugly. Every cut, every heartbreak, and every insult is a rip in the fabric of attractiveness. I feel this because no one likes the look of hurt; tears and sad expressions as well as open wounds and blood. I'm also pretty sure that no one likes the feeling of being hurt. Never will anyone say that being hurt evokes happiness or positive feelings. Most of the time, anything that doesn't produce positive feelings doesn't look good to anyone.

Racism is a very big problem in our world today. The news is buzzing about racism against blacks. But what about the Hispanics getting treated unfairly? What about the Caucasians getting treated rudely? These races seem to be left out by the news. The question is, why? There are many questions in racism. This is because racism against blacks seems to get the most responses. This is because of the news. The news is all about drama. Without drama, nobody would watch the news as much. Let's just say the news like to omit things to get views. Aside of all the bad things, the news makes a difference, just a little bit. The news updates you on your country and environment. So, maybe you shouldnt always trust the news, they may tell the truth, but not the whole truth.

Depression is not the prettiest thing to see in a person. It makes them so horrible things, like suicide and cutting themselves. They are stuck in this cloud of sadness, the weight never lifted from their shoulders. Through it all, some victims still find a way to smile through it all and no one would ever guess they are depressed. The silver lining is how others can learn from these people. They can see what affect events such as death or bullying has an effect on others, they can see what the negativity does and maybe one day they can learn how to prevent it.

Some fears may control people's life. If someone is scared of something they will try to avoid it at all times, but they can miss the joy in life.

Police Brutality is bad because we expect the law to protect us, not hurt us and whenever people murder, it's never good. The beauty of it is that when I see police brutality, it doesn't matter what race or color the police beat on because if that was my family, I would get angry. So I would try to get my friends to send the message to stop police brutality and hopefully, soon enough, the chain will get so big that race wont matter and we as people all want police brutality gone and maybe, the U.S.A. government will make it a serious issue and stop it for good.

It got so bad that one night while his family were sleeping he started shooting the other neighbors. in the end the neighbors step outside of their differences and tried their best to get the man in jail, which is the good part of the story.

What are stereotypes? Racial rumors spread around social media? Just a fun way society makes fun of other races? Or maybe they're just some stupid phrases a person started long ago. Are they myths? Could they be true? No one will ever know since our society has decided to listen to what people say on the news. Stereotypes aren't just racial rumors or jokes. They're not just spread around about other races. They can start from hatred towards a religion, organizations, schools, anything! Stereotypes can leave us judging another race, religion, culture, etc. But, despite all this hatred, there is a silver lining to stereotypes. The majority of the community knows that stereotypes are false. So none of the rumors are true. Us, a society as a city, county, state, country, and us as a whole world has chosen to think that they are true because of what we hear/see. They never show the positive side of conflict.

One thing that I think is ugly is when people think they're better than someone else because of the things they have. Everyone was created equally. So, I feel like no one should think there better than anyone else. Sometimes this has something to do with racism, because one race thinks they're more powerful or better than the other race. This could also sometimes lead to people thinking that violence dealing with different races is because if this.

War is really bad. People get killed just over something they want to have. The thing that bothers me is people make a decision to join war . On the bright side someone gets the goal.

What was tragic I think war is horrible. When we have work causes a lot of people to die and a lot of loved ones lost. But the bright side of war is we can resolve conflicts and we can also use new military weapons.

Some of the ugly things in this world is war. War only causes destruction and the death of people. Another ugly thing in this world is illness caused by diseases. Diseases are carried by mosquito that brings it to people.

I think that hate is ugly. If people have hate in them that is one of the worst things in the world. If you pick on other people's insecurities to distract people from yours, that is disgusting. I especially dislike when one oppressed community could put down another. Like, I don't think blacks should be homophobic or that gays should be racists.

I think hatred is ugly. Its worse than deep depression, bad attitude, sadness& fear. Because it leads to Anger& chaos. It also causes confusion. No one enjoys Anger, chaos, confusion, and hate. I've never hated anyone or anything, but i know it doesn't feel good However, when the hate comes love begins And love is absolutely beautiful Its the opposite of hate and leads to peace and happiness. Life is nothing without love peace and happiness.

If I were to think of something I would have to say war. I say this because war is an awful dispute between nations. Also it can tear the nation apart.It also has a result of many casualties On both sides. On the brighter side of things the countries sometimes come to an agreement or to create peace.

I agree, war is very brutal and sometimes be started or small things. We should overcome hate and come together with peace.

On of the most ugliest things in the world is War ! War is pointless. Who wants to see millions of people die over some arguments and taxs ?! Clearly not me . The U.S. spends billions of dollars to get new weapons, and new everything. War is just pointless ...

People sometimes say that fear is bad it is not because you are just explaining how you feel. Fear is when you are afraid but it doesn't mean you are a coward. So you may seem like a coward but you will always have bravery in you.

The ugly word I chose was war. War is accociated with fighting. War is associated with disagreement. However, once the war is over, the people are in agreement to whatever side has won. They settle based on what is fair. That's the prettiness of war.

War costs thousands of people their lives because of a simple disagreement. However because of this their problem is solved and things can change between the nations. War/ Fighting is very hideous

If I were to think of something ugly, the first thing to come to mind would be social media. In the news , the most popular views and conversations are about the riots against and about brutality. Social media can create huge drama and belief in the truth of the United States. The drama like this that comes from the news can affect the people. The silver lining in this situation would be that we can overcome the situation by working together as a whole.

I believe war is a ugly thing. The U.S. pays million and millions of dollars on new equipment, guns, uniforms . We don't always have to use violence to solve a problem. We use words not violence.
