Who ever said life isn’t fair was a genius. Or just stating the obvious depending how you look at it. But never the less it’s true. Life has so many ups and downs; lefts and rights; you’d think it’s just one big, long, obstacle course. Of course some people have more obstacles to face than others, but in the grand scheme of things I think it’s how you face the obstacles that counts. I’ve dealt with some lows in life like depression and divorce, but I’ve also had some pretty great highs like amazing friends and doing things I love. I just hope I can look back one day, when I’m old and wrinkly, and be proud of the way I faced my challenges in life.
So far I haven’t been that great at facing my lows. I’m not very close to my family (excluding …show more content…
Seuss, “Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.” In other words why try to be someone else if you’re already you. Life to me is being brave enough to be 100% yourself. Because how can you live life to the fullest if you can’t be who you really are? How can you meet people you really like if you’re not being yourself? How can you perform to your best abilities if you trying to perform to someone else’s? You can’t. So why try? Everyone’s ultimate goal in life is to be happy, but you can’t if you can’t if you lie about being someone you’re not. So what if I’m loud, messy, lazy, bizarre, and stubborn. I’m also vibrant, intelligent, kind, cheerful, daring, and downright awesome! And I’d own up to it any day, because it’s who I am. And I’m not afraid to show it. And the really sad thing is: people live in fear every day for being who they are. I can’t stand callous people full of hate: racists, homophobes, sexists, islamophobics, etc. if people want to run around there whole lives hating other people for just being themselves, in my opinion, it’s …show more content…
In the future I would like to make a difference; give back to the world in some way. I want to be happy with my life and whatever I choose to do with it. I believe we need more love and less hate. I believe our generation can do great things if we try. But that starts with people’s willingness to step forward and help the change. Because I believe there’s a lot we need to change.
If we were all brave enough, and true enough to ourselves I know this world would be a better place. I’m still learning how to deal with my obstacles course and so are many, many others. But I know were not alone and have each other to coach us through it. This is not the end, but the beginning to a wonderful life that will be lived to the fullest, no matter how many
