For my student choice I am choosing to write about happiness and what it actually takes to achieve it. I find that so many people consider happiness to be money, vacations, a beautiful body, expensive clothes and basically everything you see on social media. People will spend the majority of their youth chasing this false reality. Doing everything they believe will get them that life they see in that viral photo. Not realizing until it is too late that most of those beautiful people in those photos with lots of money are misirable. To achieve happiness you have to do what you want, your way. Don't spend every day of your life trying to live up to some one else, look like someone else, or even live like someone else. The thing is some people can't even help it. We grow up being told whats normal what is appropriate for our gender, what will make our parents proud and what will dissapoint them. We at a very young age are taught that certain dreams are stupid because that isn't something you should feel proud to be. If your not a doctor a lawyer or some other high ranked professional than you didn't live life right. We as people need to do what makes us happy. Follow our own dreams not those of your parent's. To me goals are those people who work everyday with a smile on their face, no fancy car or paid vacation, but they wake up everyday excited to do what they love and live life to the fullest enjoying the simple things. Now don't get me wrong I am not saying being a doctor a lawyer, or any other career like wise is wrong. If you want to save lives or put away bad people, if that is what truly brings you joy than go ahead and do so. Work hard and do what you have to do to reach that dream. All I am saying is don't do it for the wrong reasons. This subject is something I am passionate about because I've seen it my entire life growing up. Stop letting everyone else tell you how to live your life. Be your own goals, the only right way for you is your way. Be truly happy being you.
