I've been thinking a lot of late about what i've done with my life thus far. You hear these amazing stories of people of less than 20 that have done things i can never hope to achieve. These stories are both inspiring and depressing

And on the other hand successful is purely defined against other people. I think that there is a few ways of doing it, but being successful is crap. If you try and imagine yourself as being better then someone else you're a bit of a moral retard. I think you were right in saying its about how happy you are, regardless of others.
For happiness, You can take a materialistic view such as travel, money, possessions, but I think thats a cheap as shit way of viewing yourself. You need to find something that's more substantial, less transient.
So, relationships, Autonomy (better known as independence), and memories.
Just ask yourself, do you have good friends? are there people in your life that you would seriously go to jail for or take a bullet? I Have a few and these are the most important people in my life.
Are you your own person? do you owe anybody anything? debts? emotional or financial? Are you out of home? does this give you more independence or is more restricting? does home life suck?
And most importantly, Memories. When you think back, do you have wonderful experiences? travel? whatever? There are so many memories to chose from. and dont put a negative spin on any of them.
Anywho, I'm off. I'll rant later.
