Based on an in depth conversation my Eng11 class had the other day...
What is the meaning of success in life? Is it money? Is it love? Family, friends, travel? Is it saving lives?
Some people go through their whole lives not ever having loved, seen the world, or gone through life without a penny to their name. What is the secret to success? What does success in life mean? Please post your reply here. Here's a question; Do a job you kind of like, that pay's well, or a job you love that doesn't pay that well? You need money to pay for your life, for love and children and food. So, what would you choose? Happiness, or life? Life ain't fair, is it?
Here's what I've got to say;
Success in life, for anyone, is being miserable but also happy that you are so. Find love when you are penniless, when you are the worst version of you that has ever left the squirming mass of soul that you have left after being " molded" by society. I believe that money is a perk, not a necessity. Do what makes the very essence of your being recoil with terror , because you may never get the chance to do it ever again. Lead by example, but also, by some one else's example. Do not become a sheep.

Life is how you chose to live it Its on your choise alone where you go or what you do You can bring yourself down or push yourself toward success
Take the job you love and make something of it, if it doesn't pay well then Strive to make it pay well. Work towards the happiness you want not what someone else wants.
