I'm starting to, in certain ways, break away from one kind of life and embark on another. I have a long time to make this transition, but I want to be careful I don't make a terrible choice.
This may not seem related, but I think, essentially, we all want to be happy. Because of this, I have a question I'd like to pose to you: What is your personal mission statement for being happy? Is it finding true love, making lots of money, gaining control over others via being some kind of business owner or president...or what? I'd just like to get an idea as to what you all plan on doing in the future that will make you happy. Try and avoid saying "I don't know", although a lot of you might not be sure, give it a shot, or else everyone will just say I don't know - because it's a very hard question to answer straight up.
Really answer this question - it's something I think is important to realize and keep in mind as you live your life, but what do I know. I'm asking because I'd like to know what other people think being happy is, and how they might achieve this happiness to compare it with my own ideas, and see where I lay.
Anyways, I might post later. For some reason, being in my house again gives me this odd urge to get back into live journal a little - probably because I have a pretty good chance of seeing most the people that read this - and because I don't have to worry about a room-mate over my shoulder as I type.
