Life. When you think about life, what do you think of? You know what I think of. I think of life as more than just living. See life is a mix of rules, surprises, stories, and mandatory experiences. I made this article to simply explain just what makes life… well life! In my personal opinion, I think you will have a better understanding of what life is to me and get a clearer picture on what society sees as life and what the soul sees as life.
First of all, life begins at birth. Once you're born, you're basic structure is outlined. The family you're brought into, your lifestyle, and your personality. People are influenced by the environment they are in right away. For example; you can either be born poor or rich, home or no home, clean family or family full of drug and alcohol problems and it goes so on and so on. The lucky ones are born into clean families or rich families. The rest aren't so lucky, but that doesn't mean they're life is going to go nowhere. There are many people who start out poor and eventually end up rich. This shows that no matter who you are born, and if you ignore a bad environment, you will set your own life up.
Many people say your childhood sets up your life. That's not true; it's all about your decisions and what you decided to do with your life. In a sense, childhood is probably the best time in life, because you don't have really any worries at all. Your innocent childhood is the perfect time to live. Your parents provide you a place to live, food, and such. You have no worries about relationships or even a true friendship. It is truly the most innocent and best part of your life.
I would say High School starts the next stage in life, reality. Reality can be a good thing or a bad thing. Many people choose to make it a bad thing. In my personally belief I try to make it a good thing. Why would you sit there and talk about how all the fun is gone when you enter the “adult world”. That isn't true by any means. People choose to follow society's rules and make it a very worrisome and fearful stage in your life. Sure you can't have a perfect life. There will be worries such as payments, finances, your love life, your family, jobs, and so on. But I don't think it's bad to have all those worries. Be more positive about what you get in life. Even in the toughest times, take a moment to relax and be more positive.
Don't think just because you have to go to work, make money, and stress yourself out over food and a place to live that you don't need to be happy. You knew you would have to sacrifice to do it, so why argue about it now? Be happy on what you got and enjoy the little things in life and I guarantee you that you will feel better about yourself. Are you in love? Then enjoy that. Are you financially successful? Then enjoy that. Anything that is good in your life, try to enjoy instead of arguing and moping about the bad things in your life, because at the end of the day you got those good things.
Now let's talk about your legacy. Everyone thinks about the legacy in their life and what they are going to do with their life. Now in my opinion you got two options with two sub options for each one. First, you have the option of wasting your life away. There are many talented people who could have made a legacy with their life, but wasted it by either being lazy and wasting their selves in they're mom's house or living on the streets.
I do want to say that I do feel bad for these people, but it was their decision to live like this and their option to waste their lives like this. If they are that comfortable being lazy and sitting in the streets and living in their mom's house, then fine with me. But until you get that goal on what you want do with you life or why you want to do that with your life, then you will end up in this category.
One sub option in this category is the people who waste a good life on doing bad things, even when they have success. You hear about all these celebrities who have a great life and then they go off and get hooked on either drugs or drinking. It's sad to see someone with so much potential and great success waste their life by doing things that only the people living on the streets and momma's house should be doing. People like this make me sick and disturb me. Even people with no success, who find jobs or get money better than others and they use it on dumb things.
