            After watching the clip of Ashton Kutcher’s acceptance speech what I took away is the importance and essence of having knowledge and thoughtfulness.  In the clip Ashton said that having knowledge and being thoughtful has more importance than other things in life, which I agree with.  I think people who are more knowledgeable and have a thorough education go farther in life.  Not only do they go farther but they also have extra knowledge known as common sense.  When people have common sense it helps for them to make the right decisions throughout their lives.  In his speech he also talked about being thoughtful.  I think that this has a major impact on people and the outcome of their lives and every day they live.  People who think about others and not just themselves have many more acquaintances and friends in their lives.  Being thoughtful and knowledgeable has a lot more meaning than what people truly think.

            I believe that the quote he said in his speech means that everyone has their own smarts.  Some people are smarter at certain things than others.  Billions of things have been invented and billions of ideas have been thought of throughout all of these years.  But along with those things there is a need and always will be a need for each and every person to make it into their own ideas using their knowledge.  Everyone is capable of making something their own.  Just because some people may be more successful than others does not mean they are less knowledgeable.  All people in the world have the ability to do things such as change, influence, build, and much more by using their own knowledge.  Everyone has their own unique ways and ideas when it comes to being knowledgeable.
